Why do Counterstrike and the other top 10 games on Steam NEVER change? (self.games)

On Steamcharts, Counterstrike has been the #1 game on Steam every single day I have EVER looked at this site, for at least 3 years now. This top 10 has basically been the same for years... I don't get it. Do people just not play anything else?

Dota, Rust, PUBG, GTA V, Call of Duty, Apex.... Admittedly, Satisfactory is new to the top 10. Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege FINALLY fell out of the top 10, adn so did Destiny 2.

It just feels like it never changes, which is crazy.. what happened?

Yes, not only many people still play the same games for 10 years, but also spend most of their gaming time in them. There's a reason why a new live service game is both a gold mine and also incredibly difficult to stick.
