As platforms evolve, old games become unplayable. Open sourcing them will help us preserve them for future generations.

A lot of old games have become unplayable on modern hardware and operating systems. I wrote an article about how making games open source will keep them playable far into the future.

I also discuss how making games open source could be beneficial to developers and companies.

Feedback and constructive criticism are most welcome, and in keeping with the open source spirit, I will give you credit if I make any edits based on your feedback.

    That’s an inherent problem of the current Lemmy implementation, though, isn’t it?

    If you don’t spread-post, it doesn’t reach the appropriate communities and people, and communities are missing content. If you do, discussions are spread by community and posts, with only cross-post links under the post.

    I’m hoping to someday be surprised that they are suddenly in a shared view by default. I haven’t checked whether there’s a feature request for it.
