Yeah, because pirates never steal from indie developers and act like assholes if those developers ask not to do it. Those damn parasites asking to be paid for work, gee.
Okay, lets see some critically aclaimed indie game(undertale), as indie game undoubtly deserving to be bought, and compare it to AAA game series released the same year which deserves to be pirated, according to community. I will use call of duty because its the type of game series i see often said to be the reason to pirate by thiefs: AAA, high price, every year title, shitty studio.
I use very popular local torrent website, as i dont want to search what is the current most used worldwide website for it, and if it tracks number of downloads.
Undertale(2015)-51k downloads.
CoD black ops 3(2015)-54k downloads.
So now answer me, why? Is undertale the same quality shit as call of duty? Or is it even worse considering that it is way less popular, so in corelation of pirated copes divided by copies bought, more people prefered to buy CoD?
Oh wow, your anecdotic evidence taken out of the ass, without any stat how many people actually do it to back it up, so it means nothing, really blown up my brain, good job. :)
I would’ve linked website if it wouldnt get me banned. Idk, maybe i can link it in pm, not sure if there are rules against it.
Regarding outliers/variation/sample:are you saying that if i would do the same experiment i wouldnt see the same picture for other critically aclamed titles (idk, celeste, StS, etc.)?
Its just funny that pirates keep saying that they steal games to stick out to greedy companies and to punish them for making bad games. Yet when you point out that they steal good indie games just as much (or even more if you take into account overall sales of those games) all you get is insults.
Yep. Im ok with people pirating stuff. There is different shit happening in live. Just steal what you need and move on without making it bigger than it needs to be.
But acting like you isnt leeching of others people work, like you are doing a honourable thing and the only ones against it are greedy corporations is fucking cringe. And then there is also people who make it into their personality lol.
I think now is a great time to remind everyone, like sync’s developer, Lemmy’s developers need to be paid too! The amount of time all the devs put into making lemmy exist, in my opinion, should be worth some of your money. If you can afford it, donating to the people who develop lemmy and/or the people keeping your home...
Subs are kinda like tip, except you get something in return. Usually its emotes you can use on any stream on twitch. Some streamers can make other stuff like sub only discord channel but its optional.
Gift subs are exactly the same except you give the benefits to some other chaters.
I was recently talking to some friends about Lemmy and the whole Fediverse idea, as it seemed like a really cool part of the Internet. As I was talking about it, though, I realized how unusually friendly this whole place is, and I joked that I “surprisingly haven’t found any bigotry.”...
This place is the most elitist/arrogant place i seen, even worse than reddit. Especially it could be seen during recent discussion about threads/facebook.
Dont worry. Its entertaining enough for me that people were hyping lemmy and fediverse so much, and it turns out its all gonna crumble on itself the moment anyone big will join the hype lol. Makes it seem like it forever will be obscure place at the corner of the internet with decade old memes and circlejerk how good it is that nobody knows about them.
Dont worry, i know that facebook is shit. Allthough your second link is bullshit too, considering that it boils to “how dares facebook not being more initiative to censor itself”. Itsjob of tge government to enforce censorshipon facebook, not the other way around. Still, most criticism is focussed around privacy and if people are afraid for their data, they shouldnt post it on public forums in the first place.
Wonder whats next gonna be the danger for fediverse? Maybe lemmy.world getting too big? As you see maybe you already cant trust people who run it, maybe instances should defederate from it while its not too late?
Regarding your own instance to watch whole fediverse: on other thread someone was asking why feeds are different on different instsnces, and someone answered that you only see communities from other instance if someone from your instance is subscribed to that community. Was it wrong?
Some people were effectevelly not much different from slaves up until 1970 as they had no passport, worked for food (oh, sorry, for workdays, which is even worse) and required permission to move from kolhoz. Ah tankies never change.
All what communists did for citizens is: lost the election, overturned it with force and forced millions of people back to medieval society with fancy goals.

What's the benefit of using Kbin over Lemmy?
I see a very small minority of people using Kbin, but I don’t understand why....
Have you had any bad experiences with people on Lemmy?

Everyone I've talked to about joining Mastodon/Lemmy/The Fediverse (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)
yeah but if you join, and your friends join, and they’re friends, you know what nevermind...
A user from lemmy.world claims that one of the admins had a secret meeting with a representative of Meta/Facebook. Original post was removed.
