I'm not especially comfortable with how dominant Steam is, but I've immensely regretted the experience every time I've attempted to try other platforms. It was not worth trying to save $5 by buying on epic. Even the Nintendo store has repeatedly let me down with arbitrary restrictions and support lifetimes. Yet Steam keeps chugging along, letting me download games I bought so long ago that my computer can't even run them without an emulator.
GOG is an alternative (if your game is available there)
GOG is the only other store where I would buy games. Also let's say that I prefer their platform to Epic
I've been buying games on GoG to play on wine. Can't fault it.
