1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

If the games stayed I'd check it out, but having a game for a few months isn't something I find value in, which tends to be what people I've spoken with about it. Especially since you don't choose the games.

Also, seriously the PC app is absolutely awful. The games work worse on it than on steam. It crashes, has terrible performance, and break installs constantly.

You also can't mod a lot of these games, which particularly on PC is a pretty large missing piece.

That's also not to mention the cost has doubled in two years.

You're allowed to enjoy it, but I think it's also clear why it isn't taking off.
