It is called economic model and it is a societal contract. For better or worse, capitalism democratised consumption and largely improved the lifelihood of many.

I'm all for UBI, but it is too idealistic to have this without a world-disrupting event like a Great War or similar.

    Sure, but the people that made that software had to pay electricity bills and capital purchases of computers. The fact that they decided to release that as free (freedom and price) software is a different topic, itself laudable but most times not even altruistic.

    And on the "arbitrarily taken away" topic, you seem to be against "services" and not necessarily software (the means to the end).

    This blog post reminds me of Discord's dates, often times used as release date indicators (of a game, update, stream, etc), and could be fit for <time> for what the user intends.

    These could be native popovers, popovers using JS or even custom :after CSS pseudo elements.

    The runtime is for launching games, not Steam itself. You can check the runtime selection in Compatibility tab of Steam and of each game. If your Steam Flatpak install doesn't work, the issue is likely somewhere else.

    I'd suggest trying to launch the flatpak from the terminal and seeing if there's any strange logging.
