Uh thanks. I was curious about it, It didn't really surprise me to know apple stole the idea from someone (like any other big company). Thanks for your answer and time!

[-] Cris16228@lemmy.today 2 points 21 hours ago

Yes, I know and I've seen them before but you said apple stole their idea, no? I'm curious to know more

Devs can make them as random packs and also sell them separately, tons of money!

Where dis you get them?

Damn, I would LOVE a 52 pack sold with 8 random jokes (I know it's 4) + 52 random card, either gold, glass, etc.. I'd buy it instantly

Sorry! Honestly I like this loooong talk

Maybe but why make them exclusive? Look at the recent alan wake 2. A complete flop because they released on a platform no one wants to buy and remedy recoup the dev costs from it.

If you buy them day one on Steam doesn't that mean you're fine to wait and tell devs/pubs that exclusivity is good? They get money from epic for going exclusive then on Steam again, doesn't it incentives more exclusives?

I wouldn't call it a "competitor". To be a competitor you should offer something that people can like like new features or copy stuff others have and make it better, I guess? Why don't you make something useful like helping/funding part of the handheld/linux development? Wouldn't that be awesome instead of throwing money at will hoping to get a few users to use your (IMO) inferior platform?

Look at what they did: bought rocket league, removed from steam (WHY?) and transformed it into a garbage shit requiring epic account. I don't own it nor I've ever played it (if we don't count the free trial downloaded somewhere).

No, Im not gonna trust someone who does what is currently doing right now, like paying for exclusives, so if the dll method doesn't work im gonna refund it. I don't care how pointless that is.

My main issue is exclusives (especially the timed exclusives from PS, but 🤷‍♂️) and also the person behind Epic. There's nothing that makes me want to use the store or have anything to do with them.

[-] Cris16228@lemmy.today 1 points 5 days ago

Uuh thanks! Gonna buy it

[-] Cris16228@lemmy.today 1 points 5 days ago

No because a lot of people hate the exclusives and they don't buy those games, devs will realize it (one day). Look at how Ubi went back to steam, Square too🤷‍♂️

Honestly, a eos+steamworks would be better 🤷‍♂️ but even a simple "cross platform" (epic/steam) would work.

Is epic anti-monopolistic? Are you sure?

[-] Cris16228@lemmy.today 1 points 5 days ago

But if it's deleting it stops any call then it's like not having it in the first place

Nah, don't care. Devs are learning where is better to release games (aka not exclusively) soo🤷‍♂️ it's a matter of time and we'll either see it die or adapt and make something worth using and not trying to be a monopoly

[-] Cris16228@lemmy.today 1 points 6 days ago

Not if you delete the dll file, unless it's both inthe dll and the exe..?

I think it requires a restart but it's off by default, it asks when you first run it (first install? Each install?) And you can disable it but after deleting the .dll file, the game runs perfectly fine

I guess? But some people aren't really happy with these changes, especially old games where it gets added or the fact is required in a single-player only game

Hello everyone!

Recently, I saw so many posts about this and I started to think about degoogling (degoogleing?) my life.

I've started with fdroid and found some nice apps in there and I'm curious to know some alternatives I may or may not know

  • Youtube: Currently, I use ReVanced and even though is just the default app with something in it, I want an alternative with background listening, import my subscriptions w/ notifications and if possible with sponsorblock
  • Mail: Using a combo or Gmail + proton. I started to use proton recently and I want to move everything there when I have time. Suggestions here?
  • Cloud storage: Self hosted/proton? Alternatives
  • Gallery app: Stock
  • Video player: Stock
  • Music player: Stock
  • 2FA app: I have Authy and I tried to install aegis. I also have Ente but I've never used both
  • Mail app: Using K9 and the app is awesome compared to google or Samsung Mail
  • Password Manager: Bitwarden
  • Weather app: Currently, using Breezy weather

If possible, apps with a nice looking UI, modern with/without Material You

I'm using a Samsung S23 and I would like to know how bad it is to change ROM with something better and if it's really worth Pixel + GrapheneOS. Thanks

Edit: I forgot the most important one with probably no alternatives (?) Thanks to @JustMarkov@lemmy.ml (idk how to mention)

  • Samsung pay
