Reason for this meme is that some ubisoft titles are shipped with a broken version of ubisoft connect launcher. Installing these games is only possible by running the installer for the launcher again via protontricks.

I'm just saying, there is a clear double standard in this post/comment section in general where Valve gets a pass.
Perhaps because Steam is the launcher we actually choose to use? That does make a big difference...
I'm a fan of Steam. People will complain about monopolies but then want there to be a monopoly for this kind of software.
I don't think it's entirely a double standard. Yes Steam is still a launcher, but it's also the marketplace I buy my games. If I bought a game on Origin or UPlay, and then Steam popped up when I was trying to play my game, that would still be bullshit.
