We all need to keep one thing in mind, 99% (if not all) corporations will never again code anything manually.

All the more reason to pirate their shit, so you don’t need to run their launcher.

(Alongside the Linux version of the launcher, Epic is also announcing that it plans to bring Fortnite to Linux through the app.)
You have my most confused “yay”. Genuinely the only positive about this is that Fortnite might be the last holdout for some small group of people.

Good think they’ve been making nothing but garbage lately. So much easier to dismiss them entirely.

Klanky@sopuli.xyz 9 hours ago Great, so now when it goes to uninstall a game it’ll just uninstall your entire system!

Interesting self report that they suck at programming so bad the vibe coded launcher is an improvement

lol, that graphic at the end. “Try the Epic Games store, it loads 5 seconds faster than Steam!” lol

The fact they think shaving off 0.06 seconds from system tray restore over Steam is a selling point is beyond hilarious.
I can’t even make a joke about it; it makes fun of itself.

5 seconds faster, with 90% fewer features. Yay well done epic!

The vibe slopping will continue until reputation improves?
