Because they make a lot of money.

Would you be happier if it were paid DLC? It’s more fitting as a mod anyway, since the whole thing was very on-the-rails.

You’re right about that, but that doesn’t address the main concerns I made in my post.

Listen, I love my Steam Deck, but it isn’t a reasonable replacement for heavy Switch users, like this guy and his family. It’s not exactly a high-spec’d machine and as a result, in my experience, none of the Switch games play at their original FPS on the Deck. Some are so bad that they are unplayable. Online play is going to be, at best, limited and far more difficult to manage. Heck, setting it up in general for kids that probably just want to play the damn games is going to be more annoying. The worst part would be listening to, “Dad, why can’t we just buy a Switch?” a thousand times.

EDIT: I read the OP and now realize what you mean. I’ll keep this here anyway.

Because they don’t care who owns what platform. They care that they’re different and only some of their friends are on one of them and not the other.

Because many more people are concerned with where their friends are and what’s cool.

I wonder what “recycling” entails.

Which is funny because he originally encouraged people in countries without Roku to do so.

Good. I’m sick of dealing with lousy Windows admins using it and breaking files as a result. There are plenty of good and free word processors.

CEOs, I can assure you that the people who aren’t doing work from home aren’t doing any more work in person.

And what really sucks is this just the beginning. Soon enough, they’ll all demand everybody work in-person 5 days a week for the same supposed reasons.

College Board will sell your information to anyone, including your dog. That’s their (lovely) business model.

Like others have mentioned, black & white Brother laser printers are the way to go. No bloated software, lasts forever, no fussy ink situations, etc.
