This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

What's funny is that Valve didn't do some backdoor anti-trust shit that Google, Microsoft, or Apple has a history of doing.
All Valve did was focus on the end user so hard that the competition looked extremely bad.
And they aren't beholden to share holders. Wonder if there's a connection. ๐ค
It was telling being at the first Steam Dev Days and hearing again and again how Valve distinctly, publicly, never wanted any exclusivity on anything coming to steam, they'd never ask for it and it wasn't something they were interested in. Same on VR, they never wanted to 'own' it or it's ecosystem, they just wanted to see the medium grow. Valve doesn't do everything perfect, no one does, but these points earned a tremendous amount of respect from me.
