  • I would’ve linked website if it wouldnt get me banned. Idk, maybe i can link it in pm, not sure if there are rules against it.

    Regarding outliers/variation/sample:are you saying that if i would do the same experiment i wouldnt see the same picture for other critically aclamed titles (idk, celeste, StS, etc.)?

    Its just funny that pirates keep saying that they steal games to stick out to greedy companies and to punish them for making bad games. Yet when you point out that they steal good indie games just as much (or even more if you take into account overall sales of those games) all you get is insults.







  • Okay, lets see some critically aclaimed indie game(undertale), as indie game undoubtly deserving to be bought, and compare it to AAA game series released the same year which deserves to be pirated, according to community. I will use call of duty because its the type of game series i see often said to be the reason to pirate by thiefs: AAA, high price, every year title, shitty studio.

    I use very popular local torrent website, as i dont want to search what is the current most used worldwide website for it, and if it tracks number of downloads.

    Undertale(2015)-51k downloads.

    CoD black ops 3(2015)-54k downloads.

    So now answer me, why? Is undertale the same quality shit as call of duty? Or is it even worse considering that it is way less popular, so in corelation of pirated copes divided by copies bought, more people prefered to buy CoD?









  • Dont worry. Its entertaining enough for me that people were hyping lemmy and fediverse so much, and it turns out its all gonna crumble on itself the moment anyone big will join the hype lol. Makes it seem like it forever will be obscure place at the corner of the internet with decade old memes and circlejerk how good it is that nobody knows about them.

    Dont worry, i know that facebook is shit. Allthough your second link is bullshit too, considering that it boils to “how dares facebook not being more initiative to censor itself”. Itsjob of tge government to enforce censorshipon facebook, not the other way around. Still, most criticism is focussed around privacy and if people are afraid for their data, they shouldnt post it on public forums in the first place.

    Wonder whats next gonna be the danger for fediverse? Maybe lemmy.world getting too big? As you see maybe you already cant trust people who run it, maybe instances should defederate from it while its not too late?





  • “Lifted millions out of poverty”

    Some people were effectevelly not much different from slaves up until 1970 as they had no passport, worked for food (oh, sorry, for workdays, which is even worse) and required permission to move from kolhoz. Ah tankies never change.

    All what communists did for citizens is: lost the election, overturned it with force and forced millions of people back to medieval society with fancy goals.
