They won't. These people wouldn't care if they were burning alive as long as it meant whoever they hate was suffering even more.
Edit for clarity: Don't hate the science behind the tech, hate the people corrupting the tech for quick profit.
What a pleasant surprise to find posts like yours around here! It seems we've shared some headaches too. Will surely stick around!
Thank you for your common sense.
Not sure why everyone keeps on using Capcut on Android other than to stay under Bytedance's ecosystem. In my experience InShot works much better and is much friendlier. For better results it's worthwhile to just wait and use decent desktop software though. Smartphone apps should be a last resort.
Supporting DRM-free games is key either way, but being fair there's A LOT of work to be done to make it more accessible. GOG's installers for instance are not better than compressing a game's files yourself. Certainly hope they're working on better installers. If it was in my hand I'd have them employ someone who makes game repacks. Anyway, I'll take a peek and push for Steam to tag games as DRM-free when they are.
Well said. Ada's stance is reasonable, and whoever keeps bringing this up should consider taking a trip to their account settings and blocking users, communities and instances to their hearts' desire instead of pressing others to do it for them.
And Steam. You just have to be picky. Even GOG sometimes lets a game with it's own DRM slip. https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/The_Big_List_of_DRM-Free_Games_on_Steam
Had a gamedev from a respected studio tell me that same rumour about Steam pushing exclusivities. All it takes is a little digging to find out that's false. Some people were upset when Steam was installed with Valve's own games as a launcher, and later more and more devs launched their games on Steam as a store because they wanted to. The alternative, Games For Windows Live, was lame and unstable. It was just the a smart choice for those that didn't want to make their own launcher. Also, don't feed that other troll who's been posting nonsense everywhere. 🤣 And yeah, even if some good came from milking tons of cash from spoiled kids (I was glad for Oddworld Inhabitants to name one), as a consumer it's best to just delete your EGS account. If you got a game there for free that you wish to keep just copy its files elsewhere ASAP before deleting your account. Epic Games is known to have randomly deleted games from accounts because of server issues and their customer support will reject complaints about this by default, so getting attached to it's library is not a good idea.
Oh! One more thing. Epic Online Services. If it's optional in a game just disable it. You'll have less connection issues and in some games you just won't be able to play online at all if you don't disable that crap. Same goes for Epic's Easy Anti-Cheat, some mods let you disable that in a few games and doing so fixes some stutters it causes (night and day difference in Elden Ring). You're welcome. 🫶
The point, I believe, wasn't about spam but likely got derailed. It was probably about the phone number requirement being unnecessary. I'll just add that even if it is, it's a measure geared towards common users that often need to recover access to their accounts through means they're already familiar with, as is a verification SMS. It's not the safest nor the most private, but it's easier to deal with for most people. Whoever wants something that doesn't depend on a SIM or eSIM should try Briar and SimpleX. None of these will be a perfect solution for every single person though.

Worse. He's a nazi scumbag that poses as a neurodivergent victim in need of therapy and tolerance whenever his hate speech backfires. He's also been caught redhanded using fake accounts to hound and harass people he dislikes. He's not related to tech in any way and isn't an expert in any field. Just your average toxic streamer making as much noise as he can.
