Well, steam isn't even remotely DRM free. Valve is also far from flawless (allowing TF2 to be ran by hackers for literal years) and run by a multi billionaire. But sure, cyberpunk was unoptimized.

I was trying to say GOG isn't comparable to Itch...

Edit: Btw I buy games from all 3, if I didn't do business with every company I don't trust I'd probably starve by now
