By making that comment you did engage with it… Not commenting at all would have been disengaging…

That makes a lot of sense when you put it that way. For some reason I never factored that individuals were extending apps for their own use cases lmao

I feel like Linux alternatives often falter by trying to offer as extensive of a feature set as the proprietary options. GIMP would be better if it simplified it’s menu’s and focused on offering a strong central feature set, then expand on that core over time to offer a powerful workflow of it’s own.

I noticed this especially with FreeCAD, which is trying to do like 12 things for some reason? Just offer intuitive parametric cad and focus on it. We don’t need OpenSCAD inside FreeCAD because OpenSCAD is already it’s own thing for example.

Would not mind at all if consoles got lumped in and forced to allow alternative app stores

You even see this with games that were insanely cash grabby from ten or so years ago. Borderlands 2 made you pay for every level cap increase and tiny piece of updated content as it rolled out. The handsome collection fixed that, but it’s still true that it really tried to toll you at every corner. Game is still highly regarded though.

The thing that kept me attached to VR was Echo. Guess what they did to one of my literal favorite games

I wonder if self hosted fediverse stuff could gain a bit of traction 🤷

I didn’t quite figure out the issue. It seemed to be a problem with directx, and I wasn’t certain how to proceed. I chose to uninstall the nvidia drivers and proceed, for the time, with integrated graphics on my Intel chip until NVK ships with fedora 40

Good, use them for something worthwhile.

It is dystopian really the nature of shuffling hundreds or thousands of people to a building, into a cubicle, in front of a computer for 8 hours a day.

You know what? I agree with that.

I was taking my personal opinion and applying that at large, and forgot it was early access. A bit short sighted of me.

I hope the game has a bright future, even if it may not appeal to me.

Yeah, the game’s popularity comes directly from it’s gimmicky nature and not from any actual good gameplay loop. Not a single idea, mechanic, or even item is original.

I played for two days with friends and got over it. And I imagine for many, once the appeal of the gimmick wears thin, it’s all and over with

You could at least act ignorant rather than trying to logic your hatefulness

To be fair, if reddit employees are put in any danger by this debacle that will say far more about redditors themselves than spez. Hell it might say enough that he is concerned enough to forewarn employees.

I use Feeder, which is FOSS and available on F-droid.
