Valve is exempt from this for some reason however. It’s more like stereotypical basement dwellers treat this like a game where you win by accumulating more imaginary internet points. This kind of tribal behaviour is why threadiverse seems to be failing but at least some people get to feel superior to others in the meantime.

Valve isn't perfect but they've gotten a lot of community good will by not being shitty and vindictive. Nintendo has been just really shitty to their own fans for a long time, with unnecessary litigation and criminal prosecution.

I do agree that tribalism is pretty extreme within the fediverse, but I also don't think that's anything new for any small internet community.

There are plenty of reasons to be shitty at valve but my understanding is the steam deck is modable without breaking warranty
