Be the change you want to see. Make some games worth playing and release it as a FOSS and prove it can be a commercial success as well. See how it goes.

Asking people to release their work for free while providing very little incentives other than your own benefit aren’t going to convince people who need to put food on the table NOW, without relying on miniscule probability of popularity or success after pouring years of your time.

Didn’t you know if someone doesn’t find anything new in their niche kink fetish content anymore, then “Reddit is dying”? Same with niche forums with about 100 users. No more posts?

REDDIT IS DYING

Developers also need to make money to live and survive. Why do you think you’re entitled to all of their work for free? If it’s such an inconvenience, you should try your hand at coding an alternative and giving all of it for free. We’re waiting.

This can’t be stressed enough.

Your personal preferences are not the problem of the FOSS community. If it’s a problem for you, fork it and do as you please.

The idiots who never bothered to learn more than the man’s name think “big company killed whistleblower” are showing just how little they understand things

And you have supernatural powers to understand all things? Don’t act like you’ve got it all figured out, big guy.

I have kids and I don’t hate not losing caps.

Didn’t you know? it’s good when US bans/sanctions foreign companies, when other countries does it, it’s AUTHORITARIAN. And companies in US are totally not in bed with the government.

Everyone else must run spyware “Made in the USA” or else you’re causing some irreparable harm of sorts.

Don’t some games in steam run Anticheat as rootkits? That’s totally okay, because it’s from the great USA.

Totally not an attack vector. I swear.

FREEEEEDOM.

The security issue was found in a development build, not a production release. There were no users to benefit from the CVE, because none were affected. If there were exceptions that were using development builds, it on them.

“I paid for my internet connection, so everything I find on it should be free and come with support and modifications I request.”

I just scraped your profile and used it for training my commercial AI product. sue me b.

Who?

no one asked you to?

“Tech youtuber”? this guy just regurgitates whatever is already trending and then adds in his own right wing idiocracy. He’s “tech’s” reaction video guy.

Techcrunch is mostly a PR release website. I wouldn’t trust a thing about new companies and products that’s featured on there.

Writing also need vast amount research, which also involves a search engine, which at some point in time you begin to get fed up with spam, and maybe just may be, if you’re actually smart as people think you are, you begin to look for an alternative.

but I also don’t know what to tell people who believe everything they read on the internet.

Exactly, We don’t know what he does all day and it’s creepy you have this weird imagination going through. Like seriously? He probably could be checking the balance that kagi sent him for this post.

Why are people so obsessed with internet personalities just because they say “nice” things you like? This is what every one of them does.

Honestly, in medium to big projects, 2 seems like mostly astroturfing from companies who really want to hide the fact that they benefit financially but use alt accounts to push toxic bullying like “you’re not following opensource principle, not foss this, not foss that, you do this or we’re going to make a scene” when maintainers try to get any semblance of authority over their own projects.
