This isn't entirely accurate. If Valve were a public company, the enshittification factor would increase significantly. The reason they're great now is because the current board is the original founders who are passionate about their business, and actually care.
Private or not, once Gabe and the other old farts die, Valve will enshittificate. That's almost guaranteed.
I think they will just live on as ghosts in steam itself. GabeAI here we come!
