Steam fans are such weirdo cultists. It takes basically no effort to use heroic launcher to play games on Linux, gog's refund policy is infinitely better than Steam's (30 days with no playtime limit), there's zero DRM and you can install games without any client at all.
The majority of games on steam also have no drm. It's basically just the triple A games and a small handful of indie titles or something depending on steam servers.
Does gog do cloud saves, game recording, remote play? You could probably do recording by launching the game via the steam client, I guess.
I don't think you're going to convince people by ignoring their actual reasons, and writing them off as cultists.
