Steams in such an awful state now... 11.5 games released a day.

It's turning into the app store, used to be the case that mostly only good games got on steam, and if you got on steam it was pretty much a guaranteed success of some description for indies. Now there's so many games releasing they get sweeped under the rug.

Genuinely good indie games getting less than 100 sales because of the insane over saturation. Small teams that can't afford or don't know how to market, New Releases on steam used to Market the game for them and solve the issue, that's no longer the case.
