Pokémon and MTG were selling loot boxes (card packs) decades before steam even existed.
If we want to ban lootboxes I’m all for it, but it’s not Steams fault this un healthy thing people do for fun is legal and allowed to target children.
I tried it when it first launched, has it gotten better?
I think most gamers see a serious difference between ubisoft and Steam.
Ubisoft is a publicly traded company who only exists to make money for shareholders, and Valve is a privately owned company with no plans to go public, so it has no greedy shareholders forcing the company to engage in anti consumer decisions.
Anyone who looks at the two entities can clearly see which is better for the end user.
Yeah but Mastodon is a right wing cess pool
There’s no country where saying “the Healthcare CEO dying was a good thing” is illegal to say
How do I change this account to a different instance?
Also can’t the world admins just censor my comments no matter what instance i am a part of if I comment on a lemmy.world post?
Lemmy.world has an issue with mods censoring totally legal conversations.
It’s a problem going on right now
Like every other field, you won’t make a living wage until you are at the top. Apprenticeships aren’t possible unless you can finance it yourself these days.
In a just world we would redistribute the excess wealth of the rich and would never allow this kind of wealth inequality to break our economies

Cool, if the dumb as shit fascist down the street owns a gun and wants you to die for being different then you need to protect yourself.
Cool, well that’s definitely not an option now that we voted in a right wing fascist.
Maybe once leftists get in charge again we can try passing reasonable gun laws again
How would you stop a fascist with a gun that wants to put you in a camp?
If you are lgbtq, on any mental health medication, or a immigrant as a result of natrual born citizenships then you need to realistically ask yourself this question, because that’s the stated policy of the new president.
Why is arming yourself in self defense escalating it out of proption when leftists do it?
Working class people contribute to society.
The rich are parasites.
That’s the difference.
And no, telling people what to do is not real labor. Rent seeking is not real labor.
When the average right winger treats guns like toys it’s a good sign for every leftist to also own guns.
The only freedom i have left in my life is deciding when I die, so i get to feel a little free whenever i decide that today isn’t the day…
Instead of creative new games they come up with creative new ways to sue the people making the games Nintendo refuses to make.

It’s generally better to use generalized statements
Like “Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives”
That’s just a historical fact
I tried the app when it launched because I was sick of Reddit.
There were only right wingers on the site
