Lost? Not really any. I've replaced everything I can on GOG, and replaced what I can't with pirate copies.
The 2GB RAM usage of a client that does no more than spam me with irrelevant recommendation isn't worth it now that I can't just slap another 16 in there for the heck of it.
I moved the "common" folder installations out, tried launching them all directly, anything that did *not* force Steam to open or scream that it wasn;t running I kept official and made a backup. Anything that did I dumped and yarred the games I already owned.
My Steam library is something like 1500 games, spent a lot replacing console stuff when I moved to PC, but now I consider it to have been a mistake. I just don't trust Valve anymore, simply being better than Ubislop and BiowEAr isn't enough, with ho the state of gaming is shifting to be completely anti-consumer. We're not the customer there, we're the product, proven by how a publisher can add DRM after launch, or break a game and force out an update, and Valve will demand that we accept this no matter how bad it is.

The Steam client has never used 2GB of RAM.
