somebody doesn't understand what rent seeking is.

Valve is not doing rent-seeking...

they have created a service that didn't exist that's beneficial to both the consumer and the seller, they don't do any anti-competitive shit with it as far as I am aware.

in what world is what they do rent-seeking?

are you an edgy 15 year old that just learned a new word and didn't understand it?
