    You’re raging about a publisher providing deals to games that are done selling and helping them get some extra coverage.

    Your solution is how you would rather people steal from the developers because that is a better way of supporting them. Your reasoning is that Epic under pays them, while your solution is to pay them nothing.

    The irony in this tantrum hurts to read.

      My solution is to pay for the games I want on Steam. Which is only possible for me when Epic doesn’t force exclusivity.

      Other people can choose as they like.

      There’s no such thing as a free lunch unless it’s FOSS.

      I had no idea this would be controversial on lemmy.

        They said from their free Lemmy account lmao

        And I absolutely love the bit about them invading the apple ecosystem. You have the strangest loyalties on who is allowed to abuse capitalism.

              You seem to have learned its definition from Ms. Morissette.

              But if it helps, it’s not ironic to use Free Open Source Software-based, donation-supported platforms to call out capitalist practices by for profit corporations that one doesn’t like.
