I have read it runs fine on steam but would rather buy it on GOG due to the lack of DRM.

@nieceandtows Yeah, I love GOG's DRM-free ethos and I'd love to support them, but they sure don't seem interested in supporting me.

I'd like for Steam to have good competition because monoculture is bad and competition is good for everybody. But if you're a Linux gamer, nobody else compares to Valve.

Itch.io is really the only other game store that shows anything like Valve's level of support for Linux, and it's great but it's not a Steam competitor.
