No, Steam games do not have DRM by default. By default Steam is a mere download manager. For Steam DRM to be applied, the publisher has to run the drm_wrap command: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/drm
Feel free to use SteamCMD: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD
Where do you get those lies from? I'd kinda get it if Steam's documentation for publishers was behind a NDA wall but it's public.
Ok, sorry I was wrong. So I can filter out drmed games on steam, right?
Steamcmd looks unrelated, why would I need to use it? Also the wiki page only confirms my earlier thought about steam ui being horrible, whole article is avout how to install it and what kinds of problems exist, not telling how to do some basic things with it.
