Yes, though each of those should be their own company so if steam wants forums they should be able to put someone’s website in their launcher, if they want people to buy games then they should be able to embed someone’s store in their launcher…etc

Individual self-hosting plan $9.90/month
Expensive though
That’s a pure monopoly
A monopolistic market can occur when…what I previously said
That’s all online shopping
That’s what all users want
You can add non-Steam games to the client if you want.
Oh so it’s not a store, it’s just a launcher like Heroic…wait no, it’s still a problem
Any client should be able to implement part of steam into it and any part of steam should be a standalone company

If you only look at one line between LA and NYC, that is a lot more cable being laid. Now add something remote like the middle of Alaska vs the middle of Finland. We can assume for this example that they both service 100 people but the cost to do so for the US is a lot higher
That’s why using density makes no sense
That’s not a good measurement as populations are not spread evenly. You could have 10 000 people per km^2 in the US then have 0.001 people per km^2 in another
Majority of Canada is like that
It would depend on the company
How can a competitor that is courting people that aren’t revenue sources compete
Enough to tell if you’re the one driving lol
This is an old meme, my favourite
Federation is bad in all use cases
Also unix philosophy
