I suppose it’s to stop a critical mass of promoters commenting “and my axe” among themselves? I agree though it doesn’t really feel right to encourage more low effort posts
PRE-SUBMISSION EDIT: This is a long-winded reply and goes increasingly off-topic as it progresses, sorry. TLDR I agree
Anecdotally, I’ve also noticed a rapid change in the last decade or so as politicians become emboldened by Trump’s success. For example, the premier of a major Canadian province has done the following:
She was previously head of the (now defunct) Wildrose party before defecting and indirectly leading to the historic 2015 election, which marked the first time a left-wing party formed a majority government in almost 80 years.
But even then the most controversial thing she said (publicly) was that ‘the science on climate change “wasn’t settled”’, still inane but a far cry from what was to come after her return to power in 2022
Who said it was the US government? Additionally I’d wager that the people who vote both vote independent and browse these sorts of forums are people who would otherwise vote democrat. Note that there are currently many interested parties that would benefit from a republican win at this moment
I’m not too familiar with the details but there is this excerpt from a blog post by Wolfire Games from 2021 where they say this wasn’t the case. Haven’t checked it’s validity or if it’s relevant information to this case, but it is something
When new video game stores were opening that charged much lower commissions than Valve, I decided that I would provide my game “Overgrowth” at a lower price to take advantage of the lower commission rates. I intended to write a blog post about the results.
But when I asked Valve about this plan, they replied that they would remove Overgrowth from Steam if I allowed it to be sold at a lower price anywhere, even from my own website without Steam keys and without Steam’s DRM.

Yup. If Steam wasn’t around I’d have the joy of choosing between Epic, Origin, GOG (actually not bad but no official Linux client can be annoying), or GFWL (which would probably still be around in this situation)
Probably operates closer to corporate software licensing deals, i.e. “we might not catch you but if we do it’s over”
If it’s an external SSD I could see it being useful in order to keep native compatibility with Windows and MacOS (IIRC their other option would be FAT32 but I don’t use a Windows machine so who knows)
For fun or to play around with transpilers?
Happened all the time over on r/androiddev. Small company brings on the wrong person/uses the wrong SDK/wrongfully fails an review and their account is then banned via “association”, which then propagates down to countless other employees. Only way out is to hope and pray that a human sees the appeal or try and blow up online
Happened so often in fact that the subreddit even created several guides on how to avoid it. My favourite part is that even unpublished apps must be updated in perpetuity to abide by Google’s ever changing requirements
Or this other occasion where viewers of one of the most popular YouTubers in the world were banned for typing in chat
Wouldn’t call it trash but personally after trying it a couple times it seemed like it took as long to config as neovim while also not being nearly as hackable (probably is more extensible though being a GUI). For that amount of time I’d rather use something with larger benefits like an IDE
