Enshitification usually happens because Wall Street demands infinite growth. I don’t see how that applies to Valve as a privately owned enterprise. If anything the complaint with Valve is that they only work on stuff they feel like working on and nothing more. If what you want isn’t something they care about you’re SOL.

Every company enshittifies eventually, it's a fact of life.

It might take a while but it will happen. Eventually Gabe will step down or die, new leadership will come in and the enshittification will commence.

Or they sell to a competitor who will do big cuts to remove now redundant positions and you guessed it - the enshittification will commence.
