Idk if they are phased out in my country, but I have never seen people using them (only in American movies, but not irl) or even talking about them, not even in the 90s. Using them it sound so archaic and ancient

just that nobody comments or posts anything for months on end

I post regularly in some magazines, yet nobody reply or interact

The topbar has no random magazines, it always show the same magazines (but in random order), at least for me

only if the magazine rules say I have to use microblogging instead of a normal post

I have no interest in microblogging, I don’t see what’s the point of it

People who blindly believe what an AI says, why?

but the lack of a mobile app

just install the website like if it were an app. it works

It’s not the second, but the third time they post this…

what about an email?

making value judgements on other poor people for being poor is not okay

luckyly for me, I’m not doing that

I’m not rich, I know what I’m talking about. When I’m going to spend money I have to look the best way to spend it, which is the best “invest”. Being wasteful is an luxury I personally can’t afford.

No, if you are poor you learn to value every cent and not being wasteful, if you have common sense, of course

I’d say it’s more expensive to lack common sense

It’s still less expensive than a PC hobby

just with the sales and free online/cloudsaves PCs are cheaper in the long run

And mods are an added value, we can even include fanmade patches that fix what developers don’t into that added value

Consumers don’t have much say in what these companies do or how they operate.

Yes, they do. Microsoft tried to incorporate Xbox live onto PC and it was a failure because PC consumers didn’t bought it

The same goes with paid mods, Valve and Bethesda tried to make people buy mods and it was rejected by the consumer so the have to backtrack.

Consumers have all the power in their wallet they decide what course the companies take. If a company does something that goes against your interests as consumer is as easy as stop giving them money, if you hurt them economically, they’ll have to go back to the business model that gave them profits (this works only if the average consumer is intelligent enough to protect their own interest/rights)

It’s too late. Just because you stopped paying for Xbox live does not means Microsoft is going to make it free.

People should not have accepted pay for online play but since is widespread, it’s too late to revert it

basic tier for those of us who just want online play and cloud save

That should be free. It’s when people should have started boycotting Sony (and Microsoft and Nintendo) now it’s just too late

Neither the DS nor the 3DS flopped, on the contrary. the DS was the most sold console in the world

And it gave us new experiences, new ways to play and also made some stuff better (like having extra info, like maps, information or access to the inventory, having that meant you didn’t need to pause the game)

There’s no way Nintendo abandons the removable joycons.

Nintendo abandoned the dual screen, and that was an incredible feature, I totally see them abandoning removable controllers

To have access to those “free games” you have to pay first, so how come they are free when they are asking money for them?

Free is this:

No payments required and you keep it forever
