As if most Hollywood blockbusters couldn't get soulless enough.

Quite possibly the most hypocritical thing I've ever seen.

Yeah. Just to clarify, I didn't mean to try to validate conspiracy theories like these and wasn't suggesting that this guy is right, but that it's wrong to ignore the large amount of data that closed source applications oftentimes do collect on you.

I mean they can watch and monitor your activity on their website, and are probably partnered with many other websites to collate data on your interests and beliefs to feed into a chunky advertising algorithm sooooo...

But you didn't want to hear that, did you?

For some people, all semblance of rationality and respect for others disappears once they realise they're anonymous and behind a screen, causing topics with nuance and complexity which deserve to be debated and discussed properly, to be reduced into morally black and white issues. Instead of making any logical arguments, groups of people will just say "If you disagree, you suck" and so it spirals.

Even if a game technically has great gameplay, it can start to feel pointless if the story is trash.

I was sold on Matrix as a viable alternative to Discord but recently read this article which made it look not so good.

Edit: As many of you have pointed out, this article is out of date, questionable and misleading, so to anyone viewing this post please don't take this article seriously.
