I just zoomed in on the controllers trying to see how you could tell they were counterfeit.

This fixed my issue! Now Wayland is working perfectly on my Nvidia card. I don’t know why this isn’t documented in the knowledge base. Thanks!

It’s so the position: absolute for .leaves works relative to .tree. The implication is that .leaves is a descendant of .tree.

position: absolute looks for the nearest ancestor with a set position in order to determine its own positioning context. Otherwise the absolute positioning would basically be relative to the viewport. If the position: relative was missing, the leaves would be against the bottom edge of the image.

edit: I mean .leaves, not .branch

Edit: I just now realized that the graphic is more privacy-focused rather than consumer-rights-focused. I don’t know what privacy issues Steam has specifically, so its inclusion on this list may not be justified regardless of any anti-consumer practices.

I’m not ditching my 20yo steam account on behalf of this graphic

I think that’s why they were included in this graphic. They provide DRM games that are vendor-locked to their platform. They require that you buy a game from them to download mods from the workshop, even if that game doesn’t use a Steam-specific modding framework (Slay the Spire and Black Ops 3 for example). They tie that account to many services in order to make it difficult to leave their platform. Services such as: per-game community forums, friend lists with direct messaging and multiplayer integration, VAC anti-cheat, and achievement tracking.

I like Valve, they contribute a lot to open source. But be honest, if Epic Games did 1/10 of this, they would be accused of trying to build a walled garden like Apple.

It will be absolute hell if Steam ever gets enshitified. It would be better if these services could follow an interoperable and open standard or were run independently. Vendor-lock from “good” corporations is still anti consumer.
