    It feels like they’re turning focus to PC and abandoning Xbox. I don’t own an Xbox myself though.

      Honestly, it think thats a really good idea. Proprietary consoles are a relict and its great if they go away and get replaced by open platforms like the steamdeck and steam machines (not necessarily affiliated with valve though).

        locking down consoles to games only always felt stupid when they are basically pcs anyway. they should have been multipurpose machines all along instead of walled gardens.

          Fully agree. I would even outlaw the walled garden concept completely. I would necessitate interconnecting APIs for everything. So that I can call apples app store over their api from any machine for example.

          If someone comes up with an example that overburdens a company, they need to allow others to make such tools for free.

          Also, i would outlaw any fee on things that cant be explained logically. Like apple tax for example.

          Same obviously goes for consoles.
