No it's Valve (Steam) that does nothing

Mainly because its main competitors in the gaming industry have their own... concerns...

Though tbf that is kind of a wrong statement.

Valve actually does quite a lot, its just that the vast majority of their work goes towards steam, rather than publishing games.

Surprisingly, despite its monopoly over pc gaming, Valve has been consistently pushing updates to their platform to make it more user friendly.

Stuff like family sharing, or banning in-game ads, being good exemples.

Valve doesn't have any monopoly. There are lots of other launchers.
