This isn't "gamers". It affects pretty much everything for everyone. People these days have no backbone anymore. Everything just has to be easy and convenient and going against greedy practices is not convenient so companies can push the limits.

The US really isnt much better than China.
The world ain't just good or bad and there's various degrees of "bad". The fact that many US people can even talk about this stuff makes them already just ever so slightly better for many outsiders. This is how it is, neither country is "good" but they align more with western ideals than an authoritarian state which for many of us is bad by default...which it is of course. :)
Sync is fine. More good apps are better for the platform and really needed.
I personally will probably not use Sync for long. I remember using it for Reddit for a while but noticing the app was updated to slow which over time broke some stuff. Then I went onto the Sync sub and apparently the dev is a bit...sensitive when there's negative community feedback and then just stops for a year or longer or so. Good on him if he can of course, it's not like he has to cope with the internet but I've found other apps to be more reliable overall for Reddit. Let's see how this one goes.
Very good, I hope this platform has a bright future. We really need more like this, out of the control of giant companies.
At the same time, I hope they will develop more features to make it harder for content to disappear if an instance every goes down and for users to migrate their accounts.
Unreal is older than their engine no? And everyone uses that...so what does this even mean?
The difference is that Epic barely makes games. They have their Fortnite which they can put in some minor effort to keep the money flowing and otherwise they can focus on the engine. Maybe with MS now being behind Bethesda they can also put in more work into their engine...maybe. We'll see.
A full price game should just not have MTX at all. No matter if they're cosmetic or not. I pay upfront and want the full game that includes cosmetics that I wanna earn within the game. Cosmetic MTX are acceptable in F2P games only. This deluxe edition seems like some stuff that isn't even part of the game.
Lemmy pretty much just needs tags. Like you can mark your different "technology" communities with the tag "technology" and a user can subscribe to this tag to view all posts from whatever communities have this tag (and they don't have to call themselves strictly just "technology")
Something like that I would imagine so no direct interaction between communities required.
He's kinda right though. You are partially too, the game doesn't run great but it runs fine. Definitely not dogshit. Hogwarts ran way worse for what it was with similar performance but also tons of stuttering on the best setups not to mention lots of crashing in multiple big AAA games this year. Starfield afaik has none of that, it just has lower than expected FPS but not terribly so.
The security aspect really. FF on Android has terrible security compare to Chromium and Mozilla is making really slow progress it seems. Fission is still not enabled on mobile despite being on desktop for years. And even then it seems the sandboxing on FF desktop is just not considered quite as robust as Chromiums. Doesn't matter much though because on mobile FF has none of that.
I still personally also use Mull but that is something to keep in mind. Brave has all of that because it has the Chromium base of course.
Sorry, I don't want it to sound like that. He can take a break whenever he wants but for me as a user I simply used his app, found it very good but over time it broke and when I checked out the sub I just saw that many people pointed to this and also that it has "happened before". I can't comment on all the drama that has happened with that community, I don't know. No biggie for me but I also kinda don't wanna deal with this and switching software too much. I started to look elsewhere because the Reddit app was breaking and there was no sign when the dev would come back and I landed on Infinity. So I will give that one a try too, see how these apps go and decide later on where I stay.
Also, I don't want to downplay it because it is still serious but you get death threats for everything on the internet. I've literally yet to see any drama no matter how big or small where this apparently wasn't the case. It's sad.
I know it’s probably an unpopular view, but I’ve found it to be true a lot.
It's not. It's the same reason why Linux is everywhere that isn't specifically consumer oriented and front facing. Even most UIs that are designed to mimic Windows are made by tech nerds like us who just assume the users don't know what they want. But they do, they're used to what they know. That's about it. It doesn't help to say "the Windows UI is garbage anyway", it just needs to work and feel familiar. I'm sure Linux could actually slowly take off if there was significant effort put into making it as straight forward as Windows on the front end but nobody really cares about that.
If that was a prerequisite to use or trust open source software than most FOSS stuff would be worthless. It is not however. Many people like to use Linux but probably have not read the whole source code. Doesn't matter, there's plenty people that do and being open by nature is just more transparent. If they do something shady someone will most likely see it. With closed source software that is not the case.
Doesn't that kinda defeat half of Tors purpose though? Tor works best when you have a large crowd that all looks the same. Using Brave or any other browsers makes you stick out like a sore thumb because most likely not many people do this. This is the reason why the Tor people recommend only ever using the Tor browser and also not install any other extensions onto it and so on.
If you don't care about that, that's fine but then you don't really need Tor either way.
They are either people in advantageous positions that benefit from this or people that are stupid enough to think they will one day be the rich benefiters of this so why should they shoot their future self in the foot right? Goes hand in hand with people that are stupid enough to keep voting right because they advocate for the poor so at some point surely something will change.
thanks for using Leebra!
