Valve hired Le and Cliffe when the mod’s popularity was becoming clear, as well as buying the rights to Counter-Strike. Le calls the transition to working at Valve “very humbling” and says “I got to work with some of the best game developers in the industry, and they taught me some skills I would never have learned outside of Valve.”
Let’s not forget they also gave him a job

Edit: neat** 🤦♂️
I still think they are but maybe my needs are simple. It was definitely better when I switched over (from godaddy*) during one of the migrations.
Very Apple of them. As if they were the first.
You really got them!
Welp, guess my account is gone. That’s kind of shitty but I bought it just out of alpha and realistically wasn’t going to play it again. And now if I ever want to I’ll just pirate it.
It was fun! Reminded me why I got so hooked on it in the first place. Quite rusty though, first time launching in a few years and even that time was a return after a long absence.
I’m actually trying right now but the game keeps crashing st launch.
Edit: restarting steam may have worked
That sounds great. Thanks for the info. I think I’ll have to dive back in soon.
Any good community server recs?
Just my items
This is sad. I put many, many, hours in this game and still get people messaging to buy my backpack.
Seconding this @Damage@fedd.it Lemmy has really shown me this first-hand multiple times. For example !connectasong@lemmy.world started out with a few regular posters but then there was couple mo th period where we all seemingly forgot. Once I remembered I went back and decided to just connect songs with my self each day until it came back. Turned out it worked in under a week.
But it can also take time. I made my own community was the only poster there for months, posting maybe average once per week. Subscribers trickled in slowly and then I found its subscirbers growing exponentially and now others contribute.
Remember, people are abandoning reddit slowly all the time, it’s not all grand exoduses, I see it as building a relatively active community for future users to find. !fedigrow@lemm.ee was recently created for more discussion in this area.
One tip is that most of us “use” Lemmy a bit differently than Reddit. Most niche communities (with some exceptions ofc:-) here aren’t as active as they were on Reddit, so many of us end up spending more time in the generalized ones - e.g. !technology@lemmy.world rather than specific ones like r/OnePlus or even r/Android.
I know it’s now a cliché comparison but that was what early reddit was like. If you were a more recent redditors you need to realize it started smaller too, originally there weren’t even subreddits, and there was a /r/reddit.com once they were introduced.
That level of granularity largely won’t be necessary here for a while but I don’t mind at all.
This sounds familiar.
Oh I should have thought of that. Language settings could definitely still use some work.
Do you have viewed posts hidden?
Better than the android version of the original being a Netflix exclusive.
