    build a steam library that you’ll have 20 years from now

    How do you know that Steam will be around in 20 years?

    Use GOG instead. The DRM-free game installers will outlive Steam :)

      How do you know Windows will keep compatibility in 20 years? Valve money partially goes into Proton/WINE development and an evolution of that will absolutely be around in 20 years, just WINE was around 20 years ago already. CD Project doesn’t put any GOG/Cyberpunk money into breaking the Windows monopoly. (Also plenty of titles on Steam come without DRM because DRM is optional.)
