Isn't that the guy who left DRC because he was butthurt over certain emojis?
@djsumdog I used to have one but the lightbulb wasn't strong enough to melt the wax and I don't think it was replaceable.

Here is some advice for any indie game developer who is drowning in the over-saturated market of indie games:
Port your game to an obscure operating system like BSD, Haiku, AmigaOS4, illumos, SerenityOS etc. There is a untapped market for games on those platforms and you can probably get a dedicated fanbase that way because those people would love to play something good, instead of Tux Racer. It's just like all the indie game companies who ported their games to Linux years before Linux even had a Steam port.
Unfortunately, this option is basically only available if you write your own engine and use tools that are ported to every platform known to man (like SDL), but I think it's worth it.
@Alex @beardalaxy I'd never liked them because they were always contrarian takes. Like I get it, niche communities have contrarian views but I think the whole virgin v chad memes (and their derivatives) took it to the absolute extreme. I think it's okay to like some mainstream things.
But admittedly, I think the "dodge then vs dodge now", "average x fan vs average y enjoyer", and "chad yes" memes are much worse because at least virgin vs chad gives reasons why their view is superior.
@beardalaxy Virtually every altchan bans or heavily discourages Pepe, Wojak, Virgin vs Chad, and TND posting because the admins realize how soulless 4chan has become.
@PurpCat I honestly don't trust any government to fork a kernel. More chance to put in a backdoor.
@djsumdog @menherahair @eriner It was probably easier to profit off of FOSS back before everyone had high-speed Internet because you could just sell the software on CD. Now you either have to have funding from a major company like Google, go the Patreon/Liberapay model, sell your software as a service, or bundle your software with hardware like System76.
