Having disciplined myself to break such downward spiral cycles helped. That is, if I feel stagnant, I force myself to do something, anything else. Maybe it could help you too?
Also great for finding channels in alternative services, and even more so since Google breaks Youtube's compatibility to 3rd party tools every once in a while.
Pelo launcher do Itchio, é possível baixar a versão que roda em browsers, e como vem em formato HTML, se tiver algum web player suficientemente capaz, vide Joiplay, alguns ports do Chromium e algumas versões do Firefox com configurações específicas, consegue até mesmo rodar esses jogos offline.
A PC Game Launching A Launcher After I've Already Launched It In Steam Should Be A Crime - Aftermath
Launchers should do just that, to launch the game. Doing anything other than that is, before anything, a repurposing of the word.
And regarding this specific game, I didn't see the whole struggle so I don't even know which game it is, but in case it is officially sold anywhere DRM-free, I strongly suggest going for that, wherever it may be.
Got some musics on Ototoy recently. Liking a lot Babymetal's "Road to Resistance" from the batch.
Previously, the site had some info on the project, but for some years now, it has been in this current "coming soon" state. Makes me wonder if Nintendo preemptively sued Piko Int./Bleem (sarcasm but not fully). But I also wonder, since this news piece has been released now all of sudden, if the Retro News people know something we don't and, aligned to that, if perhaps Piko Int managed to sort whatever made them shut the site down in the first place and want to set some hype for a more definitive release.
Safest measure, from what I understand, is to completely replace the system for a vanilla one - that is, without any software from Google or related - and then install alternatives unrelated to the datahoarding companies.
I think that, if you have the resources to support that niche, which the savings from cheap offers hopefully allowed for, and you want to see it grow, it's worth paying more.
Thanks! Will check it.
Adding to this comment, the OP may want to be cautious about Firefox specifically. The Mozilla team has been pushing more and more anti-privacy "features" for some years now (perhaps due to Google's influence). Its forks, however and thankfully, try to fix those issues.
And regarding Mull specifically, and this may be an issue with my specific environment but I think it's worth noting, from my tests, downloading it from Aurora Store makes it crash on launch, while downloading from F-Droid store's default repository works just fine, so also beware where you get your browser from.
[Copypasta of the other repost] While I know the situation described in the article can set a precedent, the title feels misleading at best, given the article describes a single case, and not (yet) a widespread practice.
I do not have a newsletter nor I know what it has to do with the post.
