Steam comes pretty fuckin close though. Valve has its issues with communication and speed, but since all of its employees are also gamers the company frequently furthers PC gaming in ways they didnt need to because Valve employees just wanted things furthered in that category IE built in modding support, digital games refunds, built in control remapping, steamdeck being a linux machine, etc
The thing is, they aren’t doing this out of the goodness of there heart. They want you money and there own platform so they invest in there customers and Linux.
That’s not a bad thing and having market incentives to do things for the community is very effective.
