yeah it wasn't necessarily an alternative; i was just saying they're better because they tend to support indie devs and/or are more drm free than steam. i didn't know of a purely non american one that i use :(

@cupcakezealot I like that they support indie creators as well, but Valve also did wonders in regard to gaming on Linux in general. I personally support both, as long as they are not supportive in any way to the current Trump administration.

Apparently GOG is Polish. DRM free, too; the one time I used it it literally just gave me the raw game files, like back in the day.

i didn't know they were polish but yup! for most games you can go into your account and download all the manuals and exes/pkgs for any game you own!
