The best thing about steam is you can buy keys from other sites

The worst thing about those sites is in most cases it results in the developer being ripped off because the keys are either stolen or purchased using stolen credit cards.

Countless devs have said they would rather people pirate their games than buy keys from those sites

Or what are some films that are significantly better than the book they were adapted

One of my favourite books, High Fidelity. I think I am in the age range and demo it was written for, so much rings true. When I heard there was a film coming out I was so excited, and then I read it was being moved from London and re-set in Chicago, and my heart sank.

Boy was I wrong. John Cusack was great, Todd Louiso was histerical, and it was Jack Black’s breakout performance. (I honestly am not sure he has been funnier since)

And the Chicago setting 100% worked, better than London would have

Yeh, little worried dev is gonna get a huge bill from Reddit

It’s been very quiet on that front

A lot of people (myself included) are using a modded version of Infinity that allows you to put in your own API key.

I can’t decide. I have used Infinity for years on Reddit. Been using connect and liftoff for Lemmy.

In some ways it feels so warm and familiar to be on Lemmy in infinity, but in some ways, I’m thinking, it’s Lemmy, not Reddit, it shouldn’t feel like Reddit.

I’m very torn

I think Beehaw have a fine idea.

I think they picked the wrong platform for it.

but… the modlog is public… there wasnt a huge swathe of users banned or modded by beehaw
