Amazon thought it could compete with Steam because it was so much larger than Valve, but Prime Gaming's former VP admits that 'gamers already had the solution to their problems' - eviltoast

I did not realize they were trying to compete in the first place.

    Yeah really the strategy is chasing resilience and value rather than profit. And the strategy is called reasonable long term planning. Yeah they’re throwing millions into Linux now, because the alternative is being at the mercy of Microsoft who is a competitor with a known monopolistic streak.

    Adding features is choosing to stay ahead of any competition now or in the future and to maintain the skills of your devs.
