Just a silly shower thought I had after hearing about Nintendo's copyright claim against Russ from Retro Game Corps.

I'm hoping that Nintendo's consistently shitty behavior makes the general public realize that stanning for developers is better than stanning for companies

Personally I'd recommend supporting indie devs as they're closer to "locally produced" than triple-A dev entities like Ubisoft, EA, Nintendo

Tbf Devs are usually massive pieces of shit as well, thousands of over-inflated egos, cutthroat techbros and cynical asset-swappers who hate g*mers more than necessary out there for every one decent fella or lady who's autistic about meshes or render pipelines, but prob works for a Chinese online casino optimizing animation timings for whale click-through.
