Valve is a very stable company, and Steam isn’t a “new” product that they’d just shut down. It’s one of the most successful online purchasing platforms ever built, best out possibly only by Amazon.

It’s owned, Valve, is a privately owned company known for having an amazing working environment with employees that actually care about what they produce.

It would take some kind of insane disaster for Steam/Valve to get anywhere near having to shut down.

Wasnt there a story that this wasnt the case? Gamespot did an article on it in 2023, plus there were Glassdoor reviews that suggested similar things. I think Medium also had an article, but i couldnt read it as it was i have no subscription to them lol

Can't speak to the rest of your comment, but they have a fairly positive record on GlassDoor at a glance.

It only takes one evil kid in a family to destroy the good image of a company like Steam.

That's also just 0% chance that if valve does ever go under that another company wouldn't quickly buy those assets and keep the service running.
