The biggest criticism is you dont own what you buy.

Some older games gave an old school game code to unlock the game. So some I own, but many no, and that sucks

Thats what I like about what OP linked. But those platforms dont really incorporate all that steam does well. Making it easy to link up with friends is important. Though I have found myself using Playnite instead of Steam to browse and launch my games.
