When I left reddit for lemmy I noticed that any instance blocking lemmygrad would become a shitshow very quick.
I regret nothing.

That's Sovereignty.
Assuming approval is a strict requirement, a middle ground solution would be an open source, federatable, steam clone, operated locally. Have an approving committee to priorise approving games from local developers, and working on evaluating international games after all local games are dealt with.
That's for sure similarly efficient to gaming industry distributors system, where you need companies with the right connections to launch games in big platforms, like sony's, nintendo's, or microsoft's. Or event steam's, to a minor extent. Which also veto games not aligned to their opaque terms and conditions.
Also, it would improve international competition, with the removal of the technology barrier of entry, distribution costs would lower, games would become cheaper, and the share retained by creators and developers would be increased.
Long live, a collaborative approach to technology! Long live smaller profit margins! Long live open source!
Oh, my fucking god, but at what cost?!
There's nothing for people to spend on, in China, therefore they save! /s
Why maps add state borders in the US?
Maybe we should start seeding separatism there.
Communist parties are the best parties! 🎉
They also lost the chance to call it cybeer. Disappointment in so many levels.
EU wouldn't let that happen in Europe.
Would you think there's also a side effect to lemmygrads all feed?
Active remote surveillance, no one?
What's up with the hate on snaps, again, please anyone?
Well, shit. The one nonprofit I trusted. :(
Where should my annual $3 charity budget go, now?!
But also, didn't Greenwald go for a too long of a walk into conspiracyland?
NATO involvement, in supplying Ukraine with weapons and intel, I suppose?
It's probably fair to say that Zelenski isn't actually calling the shots for Ukraine, for example? In which case, what is the actual actual sovereign entity involved in the conflict, on Ukraine's side?
Thanks for biting. :)
