Rules:
- 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.

"meaning the other 59 million must still be using the PlayStation 4."
That's not what that means.
As of last December there were still 2 million active PS3 users.

I'd imagine there's still a limited number of PS Vita and PSTV accounts too.
One of these years my children will discover the PS3 hidden unused in the entertainment center since they were born, and there'll be 2mil+1. Muhaha.
When a new generation starts, I hook it up in the living room, move the previous gen to the bedroom, and mothball the oldest gen.
So when I kick off, my kid, or grand kids, are going to discover organized boxes of gaming gear. I'm sure it will be all over whatever passes for social media then. :)
Currently:
Living Room - PS5, Xbox Series X, Steam Deck Dock.
Bedroom - PS4, Xbox One X, Switch.
