But the ecosystem for buying games without DRM is extremely limited.

All storefronts have tons of them, more games then you'll have the time to play in your lifetime. Heck, Epic's freebies that have DRM are the exception, that's at least one DRM free game a week right there and let me tell you bud, as you grow older you don't have the time to finish a game a week!

In my mind it was limited to GOG, which is already a pretty good amount. But I wouldn't touch anything epic games anyway.

Meh, your loss, use a throwaway email and connect using the VPN you probably already use and you don't need to worry about viruses and shit like you would when pirating and the game updates itself when updates are available and the devs actually receive money from Epic.
