They’ve whittled down game ownership and are now ready to toss it out the window completely to increase their profits.

Ars asked Fractic if community forums would also be blocked. In response, he said that old school bulletin board systems are permitted, but Reddit is not.

If their strategy is blocking major app installations, along with the services themselves at the DNS level, at least the Fediverse is probably not big enough for them to have bothered to block it.

How creative of them, finding ways to enshittify an already shitty product.

I hate that I have just a shitty quality picture of a picture of that moment.

I’d personally still rather have the authentic moment captured than an AI-polished version of it.

The device in the picture is a ROG Ally, not a Steam Deck. Without trackpads it’s a lot less useful, in my opinion.
