    The article also is too favorable for Valve and doesn’t mention alternative methods. The billion dollar company should allow people to install games on their browsers. The client is nothing but an analytics and tracker. There’s no benefit, just like there’s no benefit in XBox or PS4/5 achievements or their features.

      How should that work?

        I’m guessing OP is referring to GOG, where you can download an installer from the web page.

            Humble Bundle does the same thing with their trove. Basically, you can just download the installer for any game you have access to.
