  • Nice then, I was just worried about some hijacking of the subject by you saying « yes, but we made money! » :)

    Good thing you can get something (more) out of it now then! Yea it’s difficult to sell those, I can relate

  • A lot of people are unconditional fans of Steam and Valve but are pretty uneducated. They’ll defend Valve because they brought a lot of good in the community but will ignore all the negatives.

    Valve does a great job on this by not responding to allegations and dramas, so people don’t learn the news.

    Sorry it happened! Try again in another community and later. Word it correctly :) - you don’t care about « karma » here. Let’s educate more people :)

  • That’s partly because the kids that entered after yours lost a lot of money, and partly because some people gambled a lot, got addicted, and lost a ton of cash.

  • I’m talking about gambling, because you can sell the skins for real money with valve. There’s an expectation of a financial prize.

  • Comment where? 🤔

  • Can’t send email with those

  • And granted they’re not in a legal red zone

    In which case it would be better to create an email on a service like proton or Tuta through a vpn

  • 😭

  • I thought it was because they made gambling open to minors and took 30% of all game sales

  • I mean, I’m all for crypto, but proton posting about holding BTC is cringe

    I don’t agree with your first sentence though. There is some logic to using crypto, but solely using it as « haha numbers go up, profit, profit! » is stupid

  • All I see is a lemmy.world user being against a genocide, and a lemmings.world denying it.

    They’re two different instances, and if anything it proves that lemmy.world isn’t totally like that

    Defederating is censorship. Use it against innocents and you’re no better than them.

  • Low moderation doesn’t mean they’re into that. You can find opposite opinions on the instance, which indicates to me that it is just not well moderated and pretty « free »

    But after all I don’t really know about the debate, I just learned about that and saw your comment

  • Just open their privacy policy and done. They sell your browsing info, and you could stop it there

  • I find it funny news. I don’t get why so much people hate it like their personality depends on it

  • I’ve tried Signal, Session, Matrix and SimpleX and the most convenient one is Signal. Some will refuse to switch, some, the closest people to you, will agree but probably just for you, unless they see an interest in signal themselves

    For WhatsApp users: I’m saying that they leak all the contacts to Meta/Facebook and use it for advertising and tracking, + sending to the US gov because we all know they share data

    For discord users: they’re a bit known for not deleting things, and backed by Tencent (if I recall correctly) they could have a reason to start using messages for advertising or similar. They’re already using game activity data to push ads (or quests as they’re called). Based in the US so also probably leaks to the gov.

    But most importantantly: I just ask if they’re really to have all their messages, and especially their private messages leaked to the public in case they get hacked. Including all images sent in PMs, and having those analyzed by some other companies as well (often for CP, but still, I’m not really ok with that). Some will say that they’re not, in this case alright, go switch to Signal! Some will say they are okay with it, and tbh they’re probably lying or underestimating the risks and the impact.

    Discord is alright, but please, or all sensitive messages, please switch to an encrypted messenger.

  • I wish it had tenor instead. Giphy seems to really lack content, I never find what I’m searching for

  • I hate matrix because it’s hard to use and understand, and also most client collect a shit ton of data, which goes against all the privacy benefits

  • Not everyone plays league of legends 😂
