Oh that's easy, just move the red line back and say "if you cross this line, then we'll consider not supporting you".

The aspect that's getting lost in all this is that the curator has basically put up a hit list of games for people to review bomb just for associating with a company. The curator has no evidence on the level of involvement SBI had with the game but they don't recommend the game based on them being involved at all.

They have taken something small and weaponised it so now it's harming game devs. No one has any evidence on how SBI were involved with any of the games they've listed on their website beyond vague mentions of "narrative" or "character development".

The worst part is, I'm not even surprised by this.

You know what's causing me physical pain? The fact the shapes aren't in order of no. of sides. Part of me thinks this post is a cry for help.

Dwarf Fortress (non-Steam version), though not entirely explicit can be occasionally graphic but all explicit content is restricted to descriptions and you'll see blood on the screen. The entire game is I ASCII (you can use graphic packs to make it more user friendly, I recommend Spacefox).

I'm talking less about the products and more about Linus's reviewing practices. We saw this in the watercooler debacle. He half-asses reviews and blames the product when he's the one messing up.

Not even that. It's that his review isn't an objective assessment of the product because he stands to financially benefit from Framework doing well. He's worse than a hypocrite, he's a shill.

Wayland isn't trying to be X12 and since X11 has been around, there haven't been plans for there to be an X12 either. You want to discourage people from using Wayland but don't encourage people to contribute to X11. You're so hellbent on taking Wayland down, rather than further convincing people that X11 is superior and it's easier to improve.

The comment I replied to suggested the opposite, that whatever decisions Apple makes, Android follows behind which isn't the case in reality.

I understand your point though. It's weird that people who use iPhones have this mentality that iPhones are at the forefront of innovation. I know some people who are aware that Apple is behind but the phone does what they require of it so they have no need to ask more.
