1. People falling for fake news is on them. Anyone with a genuine interest in the things Valve is doing for PC gaming has ample resources available to learn everything about it. The issue is not Valve not doing enough PR. The issue is people basing their entire opinion on an issue on a couple of unreliable and misinformed sources and not digging any deeper.
2. It has been debated and explained in many Valve-related threads that we don't all agree that some of the 'problems' that Valve doesn't fix are actual problems. Curation is a good example. Someone asking "why the hell won't Valve fix the curation problem" fails to realize that for many people there is no curation problem because they believe curation is a bad thing. Durante has explained this many times.
3. Even if someone thinks that Valve could be doing a better job a some areas, which is reasonable, supporting a garbage company like Epic which competes in an anti-consumer way and abuses the developers working for them just to get Valve to change a couple of things they don't like, is the equivalent of trying to kill a spider by dropping a bomb on your house and demolishing it.
