I could go on endlessly about Steam/Valve as well, trust me I devoted my time to it when they were really fuckin' up. I was that kid who made the Steam Support petition, the only one that really got any traction as far as I'm aware. Still sucked, but eventually their support did improve, tremendously, they now have refunds for example.
Here's how it goes, especially with third party launchers: They need to match Steam's Quality and Security.
And, however you may feel about Steam, very correct or simply misinformed, it's like not voting in your local elections because there's no good candidates, sometimes ya just gotta work with what's there, man.
I must stress, the second, the literal micro-second they start to fuck up, I will ring the hell out of alarm bells. But as it stands? I think they know they can't fuck with us or they'll forever lose us. If they try, for sure they got us by the balls, but it's not like PC player can't fight back. Not suggesting nothing, but I am saying there's an unfortunate number of options from other launchers to piracy to simply not participating in gaming as much, which truthfully? You'd be surprised how many people just have Steam as a weird thing that never bothers them.
I have more problems with Windows than Steam, and same goes for everyone I know. The company that fought the IRS and won? I think the fact we're tied to their ecosystem is a bit frightening, far more than my fear that Steam will turn on us.
Again, ya gotta work with ya got, at the least of near every argument anyone can make. What Steam did here was beyond expectation, in an industry that's become so stale with the caked shit of company bull, Steam once more is a beacon of flushing just a bit of it away from an ecosystem where you Can In Fact Ethically AND Safely Consume.
Allow Third Party Launchers. Just don't trust them.
Steam showed they'll have your back
EVEN IF SONY
tries to Rob You.
Give them credit where it belongs. That's showing your bravado and backing that shit up with action.

The purpose of this post is not say that iQIYI's subs are incorrect. Rather, it is to highlight some of the nuances that, in my opinion, may have been lost in translation. We all know that our baby boy Rain is a brat with penchant for swearing, so him actually saying "fuck me" is more in line with his character and works better in context [1]. In this case, the context is Payu's response — he calls Rain a "naughty boy (เด็กขี้วะ)" and bites his lip in a punishing, albeit playful, manner [2]. This is a callback to one of the established rules in their D/s relationship — no swearing.
