It’s not like a ton of people have compatible hardware anyway. It’ll eventually become more common as more uploaders can encode and downloaders can decode.

Artemis is specifically supporting kbin

“Better” or “you get what you pay for” aside, the owner of PIA is patently sketchy.

I know this isn’t what you’re asking for, but with so many scam sites posting fake zips or pretending to upload them behind endless ad-survey walls, I think you’re much better off just using soulseek for music piracy these days.

I moved off PIA after they were bought by a former ad-ware distributor, and I’ve been on Proton VPN since.

They do currently have a Linux GUI, though it’s extensively lacking compared to the Windows client, and the CLI / DIY methods for using their service is much more flushed out.

That’s not to say it’s a bad client, it’s just very much not what they advertise feature-wise. The speeds and server-availability are all great, and these days it’s all bundled into a “Proton Account” that gives you VPN, Email, and Cloud Storage based on your tier.

top seller by revenue

Yeah same reason the Index was previously always on the “Top Seller” tab as well, since the damn thing is $1000 lol

going back and changing stuff wont do any actual good for anybody

I don’t think it’s so outrageous to think the developers / artist came together and said something along the lines of “hey we’re in a different place than we were back when we released this, and are no longer comfortable with the social/sexual/racial/etc. overtones in some parts of the game.”

It’s helps them, it’s their work and their expression being put out into the world; they have every right to want to alter it as their moral compass shifts.

The only actually shame is that their initial work seems to have attracted a pretty weirdly rabid & horny fanbase that can’t stand their change in tone.

It absolutely is the right choice, and literally 99% of all the twitter replies to their official announcement were just horny accounts mad about the game being less horny. It’s pathetic.

After joining TL, I really only use it and Nyaa for torrents, and Soulseek for music.

The "why"is just that there’s rarely anything I can’t find on TL.

Does anyone else feel like this game is getting super heavily marketed / talked about out of nowhere? Did they pay some big streamer to play it or something ?

It’s a remake of a game from 2017/2018 that had ~100 peak players, and now it has 40K average players? just seems a little weird.
