No and I would stay away from anyone using it. Full of bigotry, racism, antisemitism and transphobia. It’s hard to find a site more disgusting than 4chan.

Windows: supports pride month Linux: doesn’t support pride month The choice is obvious.

did you no favors in trying to prove your point

There is no point to prove. You just made shit up and try to defend it by “but it’s a possibility”. It’s pretty hard to argue against a made up scenario of Google buying data from Valve to fund Steam Deck.

there’s the monthly hardware and software survey

It’s optional.

whatever users didn’t willingly provide was probably bought from Google.

Ah, yes, probably.

I mean I wish I could find a source

No surprise there.

We’re all voicing opinions. I chose mine and don’t begrudge yours.

More like false accusations.

antiX Linux. Proudly antifascist too!

So!!! Much!!! This!!! The blatant racism and transphobia that is endlessly spewed in all multiplayer games is simply disgusting. The racist and transphobic players need to be held accountable. Permaban them, hardware ban them, report them for hate crime. Simple as that.

Look for the political association of the author. Right wing? Into the trash it goes.

Wikipedia should turn the IP addresses to the police and the far-right net vandalism should be criminalized.

they are being completely transparent about their designs to acquire your data.

and so are we by voicing our opinions

How exactly do you suppose a device like the Steam Deck even came to be? By harvesting user data,

Any source for that claim?

Google does have PR considerations to manage.

No. That’s for smaller companies. Google is at the point where they can do whatever the hell they want without having to care about “PR considerations”. They could praise genocide and it’s hard to imagine people would drop Youtube, Google Search, Android or Chrome.

how is this any different than buying an EA or Ubisoft game on steam?

Who says it is different? Some time ago, I wanted to buy South Park: The Fractured but Whole on Steam, but when I saw the Ubisoft account requirement, I immediately close the tab.

It went the non ethical way.

Sadly, you can swap Asus with pretty much any popular company’s name and it still holds true.

Board of directors, I guess.

Meanwhile Ubuntu:

All according to keikaku (keikaku means plan).

Perhaps because it takes time, resources and workforce to build another kernel version. Not to mention Ubuntu Pro is actually free. But then again, I know we’re just supposed to hate Ubuntu here.
