  In what world is Sony a monopoly when Nintendo exists?

  The Switch 2 is not a dedicated home console but it is a console

  Don’t get me wrong, consoles are dying too, memory prices have gone up and Sony is already shifting from making money from consoles to making money from subscriptions

  Nintendo is just doing their thing and becoming the Apple of the videogame industry

  downvotted for saying the true, every software community should be OFF discord and setup a forum

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord Alternatives, Ranked⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  just decided to bend the knee regardless of jurisdiction.

  yeah, I understand why companies do this tho

  from their side it is cheaper to just put the same measures and requirements for every legislation and in discord’s case this is the perfect opportunity to get more data from their users

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord Alternatives, Ranked⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah, forums are cool but I remember changing to another medium like MSN Messenger to do real time conversations

  I don’t think that’s their focus right now, it seems like they are focusing on replicating discord features and that is not one of them

  SpaceHey exists, but just like the old internet moderation is a problem in that site (lots of harassing)

  yeah it’s the closest to a real discord clone, at least discord before they introduced screen sharing

  I think the biggest exodus from reddit happened when they limited their API so all 3rd party apps died at the same time

  But reddit had a lot of blunders so this is just my guess

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Video game giant Valve facing UK lawsuit over pricing, commissions⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can try and it may work because a lot of games on Steam and Epic barely use the DRM.

  I have portable installations of several games from Epic that I moved between Windows installs that just work by executing the game’s binary

  The issue with Steam is that some games do use the Steam DRM to verify additional content, but even there are ways to bypass that in two ways.

  1. The game files already include the DLC you just need Steam’s license to activate. In this case you just need to crack the DLC.
  2. The game files do NOT include the DLC. In this case you could try installing the DLC from a DRM-free source or just copy the missing files from another installation. (This was a way to bypass the limitations of some demos using denuvo, mixed with a mod to bypass integrity checks)
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Video game giant Valve facing UK lawsuit over pricing, commissions⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah most games don’t have any DRM related to DLC on Steam

  DRM on steam most of the time is limited to the base game and sometimes you can just run the binary without Steam

  Even on games with denuvo you can use tools to pirate DLC (I did this for SMTVV)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TikTokers are heading to UpScrolled following US takeover⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh that makes sense, in this case it would need something like a toggle to only share data on WIFI, kinda like Google Photos and Immich do

  Maybe predownload videos on WIFI (Tiktok already has this function) and only use mobile data for comments and replies, and asking the user in case they are on mobile data if they want to download videos on demand.

  Anyways, I was thinking on ways to make it work. Thanks for the explanation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TikTokers are heading to UpScrolled following US takeover⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t get it, isn’t sharing videos generating data usage? I need to check how that works

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Video game giant Valve facing UK lawsuit over pricing, commissions⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think they will take this to court instead of paying, it sets a precedent otherwise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Video game giant Valve facing UK lawsuit over pricing, commissions⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  the only stores that could allow that are DRM-free like GOG
