Petition urging Valve to make steam more accessible

By Piotr Machacz, 6 April, 2015

macOS and Mac Apps

A friend of mine has started a petition asking Valve to make Steam more accessible. For anyone who doesn't know, steam is, "an app store for games". There is a client for Windows, Linux and Mac which is why i'm also posting it here, as there are a few quite playable games on steam that can also be played on the mac, Eg Shank. The mac steam client is completely inaccessible and it's a real shame as there's growing interest with developers to make their desktop games accessible and most choose to publish on Steam. Even if you normally don't play games signing this would be appreciated as every signature helps.
