Well factorio doesn't seem to be getting free updates anymore, that was mostly only during early access. They've decided to do paid DLC now instead.
Most relatable comic I've seen in a while
Can confirm this is true because the same was true for my mum. She was against the COVID vaccine, but then she started believing that the theories were started by the Chinese government to target people who don't listen to the authorities.
The problem is I don't have an old phone. But yeah I eventually figured that out for a game that I couldn't find online. So what I did was created an emulator on my computer with an old version of Android and logged into my account on that.
Fuck google. I just want to be able to play minit on my phone, but no, Google says it's not good enough for me because they haven't updated the app in a while. You know, like most games. Of course they haven't updated the app, the game is finished, they've moved on from it.
Maybe the whole abandonware thing applies to regular apps, but in my experience most games without microtransactions get updated for a bit when they're released and then never again. Because there's no reason to update your game once you've fixed all the bugs, unless you're not adding new content.
I cannot tell you the number of times I've thought about a game that I used to like and looking for it on the Play Store, only to find out it's been taken down and I have to go for an hour long search through sketchy sites to find it. It's fine if you only play new games, but from my experience, the majority of old games are just not available, unless they're made by a studio that's still big enough to keep up with the requirements. For no good reason.
I would fully understand having a warning for old apps. They could even hide them from recommendations. But if I want to install an "abandoned" app, I should be able to.
Second Wind made a response. Everyone else at Second Wind disagrees with Frost and is happy with Nick. Quote from Yahtzee:
I wish him well and that he'd focus on his future rather than trying to stoke petty drama in ways that reflect badly on him more than anyone else.
Right, so Ubuntu
Nah I'm pretty sure it's still lemmy. This page seems to say they are looking at moving to something else, but they're still using lemmy for now https://docs.beehaw.org/docs/important-questions-decisions-and-reflections/beehaw-lemmy-and-a-vision-of-the-fediverse/
I don't think that's true
I did just that when I first switched to Linux, I installed KDE Neon on Linux Mint. And it broke everything. And when I went to forums to ask for help everyone yelled at me. So maybe don't recommend installing KDE on Linux Mint.
