  Hopefully they just post updates on the platforms they sell their games on. I shouldn’t need to sign up for anything else.

    Anyone remember websites and RSS? Those were the days.

    Why does everything have to get shovelled into someone’s walled garden…

    (Speaking about updates and notifications here, not discussions.)

      It’s the walled garden thing that gets me. At some point, people got complacent. I’m 100% confident that there is an entire swath of the population which has never considered that Discord is a corporate entity with corpoate interests. We made open standards for a reason.

        Hard agree. Mindsets stuck in 2005 or before when cool and useful stuff was, just, free online. We were such summer children then.

        Anyone still like that obviously shouldn’t be in charge of anything sharp or dangerous…

        Everyone I know is like this. They love the corpos because their stuff is shiny and easy, and shoved in their face so they don’t have to learn anything. They have no clue how to use anything that isn’t Apple music, discord. Instagram, Snapchat etc. All garbage.

  Matrix?

    I’m guessing so, since Element is perhaps the most popular Matrix client. There are others though.
