Mastodon is easy to use, it had no chance to become neo-twitter for other reasons.

Can you accept organic growth and not being the bestest best with three billions people?

It was shit with horrible semi-working never updated java applets that were always broken, unless you used right version of ie and windows. But it was certified by proper authority. 🥴

An article based on twitter post based on screenshot of a spreadsheet. 🤢

So it wasn’t really about attestation or security. I am really shocked!

All existing apps would work but you will need to install them.

AFAIK it isn’t compatible with latest versions of clonezilla, and probably won’t be due to project being dead-ish, it might be better to use clonezilla directly.

There are multiple groups whose goals are in conflict, at best they will form a working non religious government.

And there won’t be any reprecussions again.

Nobody knows, probably all of them will start a war with each other and isis somehow will return.

But will he really take all responsibility?

You post the same data now with article that doesn’t even have word “steam” in it. Your various sources weren’t linked. I think that clears why your source is “nonsense”.

Yes my words are changed because, you somehow read me saying multiple times of steam being monopoly in single use of phrase, steam behaves like a monopoly. I repeat, not liking one store doesn’t make me a fan of another, they both are horrible.

As for examples of anti-competitive behaviour, price matching that is being discussed in comments here is a big one, don’t you think?

So much this

Your “source” is an image that doesn’t even differentiate between various stores and lists everything as blue, with text that says “steam revenue is probabaly x billion”. I couldn’t find anything except other similar images when looking up Pelham Smithers reports. In reports from previous years steam is not mentioned. I will rephrase it then if you dislike the word I am using: Steam has a dominant position in the pc gaming market and uses it to their benefit which doesn’t (in my opinion) coincide with consumer benefit, also their app is shit.

P.S.: I’ve used the word monopoly once

It came out okay-ish, no real game-breaking bugs, after patches it is even better.

As evidenced by this post, they are not a monopoly. So what does this statement actually mean?

This post gives evidence of the contrary, game that dared not to be published on platform that has 70-80% of pc market share ( https://www.geekwire.com/2024/gaming-giant-valve-hit-with-another-antitrust-lawsuit-alleging-anticompetitive-practices/ ) shouldn’t even exist and even stating otherwise is a blasphemy, lol. As for more anecdotical examples, games that are published on steam only, are majority most don’t even list other platforms on their web sites, in cases when they can be bought elsewhere. Even more, updates and patches often do not reach other marketplaces. So yeah steam is a shitty marketplace with horrible ui and captured fanatical clients.

Ok, sorry I was wrong. So I can filter out drmed games on steam, right?

Steamcmd looks unrelated, why would I need to use it? Also the wiki page only confirms my earlier thought about steam ui being horrible, whole article is avout how to install it and what kinds of problems exist, not telling how to do some basic things with it.

Both are horrible mess, I don’t really understand this deepthroating of steam their ui is horrible, they do behave like a monopoly, games by them have drm by default. Same can be said about epic.

russians of course! Haven’t you heard that not giving your country to russia is nazi-imperialism?

So you assume that other people think that you are an asshole doesn’t actually mean that you think that you are an asshole? It isn’t cherry-picking when discussion started with you generalizing about “men” being not_good by default. There is little that is understandable about such a position, have you tried not to have negative assumptions about yourself and other people that you don’t know?
