If they were publicly traded they could have started to do the smart things that investors like to see, like spending billions to integrate AI in steam. Why is there no AI in steam yet ?

Better for what ?

For repairability ? The fairphone win easily

For not giving your money to evil corporation ? Fairphone is better.

It was a typo, thanks
