Truly worth it. I'm actually about to sell my Switch and its games (and I already gave away my Xbox after deleting my account - considering selling them but after playing with the discs 🦜).

Being able to play games from anywhere is one of the very very few ways to fight off platform enclosure and allows me to directly support independent game makers (by getting their work on Itch, GoG, Humble Bumble or Steam itself).
It's not praise for Valve. It's an acknowledgement of options and being more optimistic, we need concrete ones.

@jalcine I will praise Valve. This is a device I've wanted for a decade, and it could only happen because Valve paid people to build solutions for a thousand little problems. They could've taken easier or more profitable paths to get here (abandon Proton and use Windows, or locked down the OS to just be a Steam appliance), but they didn't. They could have charged a premium for the user experience like Apple would, but they didn't. If corporations must exist, this is how I want them to behave.
