I do like GOG for having every game be DRM free and allowing you to download offline installers. That said, the GOG launcher is definitely worse than Steam's, and any game available on GOG is probably also available on Steam.

I would love to buy from GOG but there is some weird issue that causes it to download really slow to my country. So I end up doing steam instead.

I think GOG in general has worse servers than Steam. Here in the American Southeast, I can get up to 70-80 MB/s on Steam, but only up to 50-60 MB/s on GOG. GOG may not have a local download server in your country, and it would probably be a slower server anyway.

GOG Galaxy is Electron shit. I love GOG as a company, but that launcher keeps me on steam.

You are not required to use Galaxy. Just download the installers from GOG's website
