I'm sure it's about that for some people, but yeah if they ever actually get significant market share they will enshittify so fast it'll make your head spin. The only thing that has changed is they've decided they need to make a bare minimum experience instead of just throwing money around.

Eliott looks like an Ys game (napishtim, origin, felghana)

It is not final fantasy it is romancing saga

The card thing made it a game that was fun when you play all the time instead of the once a month your busy adult friends are free at the same time, so a lot of people that had previously loved l4d couldn't really get into it

They can do what they want, but with no help from Apple even on the documentation front it's sure not how I'd spend my time

This is really sad, but one has to wonder if it's actually prevalent enough to warrant news or the typical "everyone panic the youth are doing blank" when someone just said something on the internet once.

Another site allows users to pretend they are taking a smoke break with other people without actually smoking or physically being around anyone. The site displays an image of a cigarette, a "start" button, and messages from other logged-in users, creating the feeling of an online break room.

That's kind of neat actually, but nothing that didn't already exist on AOL in the 90s

Macos is a real unix based OS. (As opposed to unix compatible GNU “Gnu is Not Unix”)

I've seen so many people say this over the years, and I'm still not sure why i should give a flying fuck. Additionally, when I worked on low level cross platform software, macos was the one that was missing posix functionally I had to replace by writing shims in objective c

Yeah I'm not sure what determines it but sometimes it isn't available. For me it is for the linked site though

Firefox does have reader mode. It is the little page icon in the address bar

I know a lot of people including me that haven't bought a switch 2 after owning every nintendo console released in their lifetime because they're disgusted with with Nintendo's behavior. I'm sure some percentage of them will cave eventually but it's definitely a non-zero amount of money they've left on the table by being like this

The problem with the model of exclusives driving console purchases is that it only worked when people could afford multiple consoles. The combination of consoles and games being more expensive and them trying to double dip by requiring subscriptions for online play means most people are going to pick a platform instead of getting several like they used to, even if they would want to play some exclusive they can't.

we are all free to listen to eachother’s point of views, then arrive at our own conclusions .

Sure, but I'm not going to pretend for a second that the pseudointellectual masturbation of "rationalists" is worth a damn just because their narratives were useful to capalist oligarchs so some people call them "experts" now. What a farce
