who. fucking. cares.

I mean, I’m kinda opposed to the intrusion of even more ads, personally.

I just got it again. Note how Unlimited is grayed out, because that’s the subscription I already have. Also note the “ProtonVPN” at the top. This is a nearly full screen ad that just popped up when I opened the app.

My point is that there are still people that were never going to buy the game outside that 20% of lost revenue.

My point is, that doesn’t matter. Will there be people pirating games that never would have purchased otherwise? Absolutely. Any game is a good value for $0. But many people use this argument as some sort of mental gymnastics to justify pirating. I’m just saying, the OP is evidence that that argument is bullshit. Many many people will choose to pirate rather than paying for a game they want to play.

Yes.

No. I still prefer Gnome but Mac is fine.

I really like how Gnome has the super key and kinda combines Spotlight and Mission control into the same function.

After I got a free iMac and using it for a while, I don’t think I can go back to Linux daily. It’ll still be on my laptop, and my gaming PC, and eventually this Mac will die and I’ll have to reassess. Linux is still just way too complicated for me to complete even basic tasks.

The biggest drawback of MacOS is all the software that’s locked behind the Apple Store, which I refuse to use.

People that would not buy the game that will pirate it once it is cracked

That wouldn’t cause a loss of revenue. Which only leaves

people that could not wait and just bought instead of pirating it

Which was my point.

There are a hundred different ways to do this. My personal favorite is https://wormhole.app/ because it’s pretty.

First, let’s clarify iOS’s “Size” number. The iOS App Store shows Install Size, whereas Google Play shows Download Size.

As a Linux user I’m quite fond of MacOS. There’s not really anything special about it but other than the unremovable first-party bloat ware its easy to use and stays out of my way, which is really the best I can ask for.
