Which they could also report on. The fact they’re removing a standard metric they’ve relied on, rather than relegate it, shows they have fear this metric is going to be detrimental to publish. You can fairly safely assume it’s going to go down. It’s no longer sexy, tik tok is killing it, and most that would be on it, are, and are discovering it’s not greatly beneficial to them and spending less time on it. It is the start of the decline. How long and how fast is the thing we do not know.

I use OpenSuse for gaming. A great distro.Highly recommend. An up to date kernel, stable and just works.

Had bad experiences with Manjaro so personally wouldn’t recommend.

Nothing says innocent like threatening with lawsuits…

It’s got big corp, reputation at all costs over doing the right thing vibes. The latter is reflective and willing to improve even if things aren’t bad, but could be better.

People will make their minds up based on how much they trust them. Personally, I don’t.

Oof. No ability to learn. It was bad. The cover up/fob off just makes it worse.

Same here. Dreadful name. Classic open source.

So they don’t believe in it, they’re just using it to win an election?

I assume this will go the same way as Kier’s leadership pledges. Out of the window when no longer convenient.

Embracer extends then extinguishes.

Isn’t Minecraft one of the biggest games on the planet? RimWorld simply awesome. Stardew selling millions…

Chasing top graphics hasn’t always been the route to success.

Lol nah. But Lemmy world has a somewhat rude intolerant moderation policy and often users mirror that. There is good people on there, of course, but a reasonable percentage of folk who’d be at home on reddit and Xitter.

Happy to chip in, but not as sole mod. I ressurected the DeGoogled community on lemmy.ml and overseeing it since then.

The privacy is not about protecting your data from crawlers, it’s about protecting your data from big tech.

Completely self serving though. Mobile is a personal data goldmine and Google gotta dig into that one way or another and if folks can contribute to that side with bug fixes, great.

For anonymous payment?

If only a source of power was stronger with sunlight… Maybe like solar, it would be perfect for this.

Actually, that sounds like a crazy idea. Surely they’d have found a way to do this if it was possible…

Or cash, as if you buy gift cards and they go bust, they owe you money, but you’ll be well down the list and never see it again.

A few lyrics from NoFX come to mind.

“Kick back, watch it crumble See the drowning Watch the fall I feel just terrible about it That’s sarcasm, let it burn”

"Where did all their money go?

Don’t we all know? Parasitic [gaming] industry As it destroys itself We’ll show them how it’s supposed to be"

"Dinosaurs will slowly die And I do believe no one will cry I’m just fucking glad I’m gonna be There to watch the fall

Pre-Historic [gaming] industry Three feet in La Brea tar Extinction never felt so good"

Switch a few words and it works perfectly well.

Gamers need to realise it’s all about the indies. Buy indie, screw AAA. Watch them grow and hire those talented folk that deserve better than this bullshit.

Probably just process. They’ll send an updated fob off letter. Right wing gov that represents business, not people.
