Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Makes about as much as Netflix's current attempts to muscle in on the gaming market, Epic-style.

Why I continue to be surprised by corporate decision-making is beyond me.

At least that halfway makes sense. Netflix on a laptop means games too.

Oh yeah totally, a media streaming company trying to stream different kinds of media is exactly the same as a fucking fast food restaurant getting into media streaming. Did you even read your own comment before hitting submit?

You emphasised the word exactly but op didn't say that. Did you read his comment before hitting submit?
