      Not sure exactly what you're trying to say here but I guarantee 0% of that wealth came from his investments in Linux support. Their investment in Linux is mostly a way of keeping MS in check, as in "if you try to fuck us the way Apple does with iOS, your customers will leave Windows because they'd rather have something where they can play their giant library of existing games".

      Hey if Gabe wants to make Linux phones something to be taken seriously I’m all for that. Until then, Gemini creeps me the fuck out so no android. I can tolerate Siri being fucking dumb.

        Man who didn't want his business to be completely reliant on Microsoft, made a decision to ensure his money in the future

            From what little I know about Gabe, it’s seems he doesn’t want to be the center of attention at valve. He wants Steam to the center of attention. It’s a smart play as we are seeing more and more people turning on techbros and their cult leader status’.

              I just dont understand miney obsessed people. Why the hell do you need multiple yachts? Why even work at this point when you could just .. not? You would still afford everything you ever want without ever checking your bank account. I just dont get it.

                Gabe sounds like a nice guy. You never hear bad things about him like other CEOs.

                      Valve was making bank before lootcrates, and lootcrates have been available to kids since trading card games.

                        The thing isn't that they have constant work to do, but that they *must* be available for work at any time, for any reason.

                          Greedily taking up an obscene excess of resources and producing crazy amount of emissions and pollution makes the planet less livable for the rest of us. Yachts do those things.

                            Gabe Newell is not a usual CEO though.

                            There's no reason to idolize the man.

                              Is that downvote the number of games you've released?

                                This isn’t a job interview I’m not obliged to give you my CV. I’m stating an opinion that valve and steam are not the friendly aw shucks corporation they’ve been whitewashed into.

                                  You started your opinion as a fact, and qualified it by saying your a game dev. Back up that claim. Shouldn't be hard to do.
