Wouldn't it be Apple's benefit to get more gaming on MacOS? Their goals might align with Steam.

Apple's native gaming story has been similar failure as their AI and Siri ventures. Time to fix it.

Valve seems to break free form depending on someone else’s walled garden.

Apple seeks to builds its own walled garden.

Their interests do not align. Apple doesn’t want portable software on their platform, they want exclusive software.

  • Hard to swallow.

    Every day I sit down at a Mac for work and proceed to launch VS Code, Zed, Outlook, DBeaver, Excel, Teams, LogSeq, Syncthing, Chrome, Firefox, LM Studio and Docker. I prefer MacOS but basically all of my application workflow exists for Windows verbatim and if using browser versions of the MS apps, on Linux too.
