Rockstar Games DDoSed Heavily By Players Protesting New AntiCheat Code in c/games@sh.itjust.works

This impacts more than just cheaters. Rockstar apparently didn't enable Proton support with Battleye meaning many Linux users can no longer play GTA Online. I don't play GTAO but I am not looking forward to when I can no longer play Red Dead Online.

"As we mentioned previously, BattlEye on Proton integration has reached a point where all a developer needs to do is reach out BattlEye to enable it for their title. No additional work is required by the developer besides that communication." source: https://store.steampowered.com/news/group/4145017/view/3104663180636096966

I was a child when I got Weird Al's autograph when he performed at an antique car show with the audience all sitting on grass. He was super nice.

Request to create a 2nd paid only version of the app (lemmy.world)
 

I don't like the lack of transparency with how the Google Play Store doesn't list the permissions if one pays for the app and instead only shows the permissions if one doesn't pay.

I generally prefer it when devs release two apps -- a free version and a paid version. This way it's very clear on the Google Play Store what is being tracked in the paid app.

This won't affect me personally, but I am curious if others would be more likely to use and pay for Sync if the permissions were more clear for the paid usage case.

Feature Request: vote reasons, e.g., +1 funny -1 troll, etc. (lemmy.world)
 

@1993_toyota_camry@beehaw.org wrote a great post about Slashdot upvotes/moderation which I think makes a good feature request.

Here is the opening line of their post: "this was something I loved about slashdot moderation. When voting, people had to specify the reason for the vote. +1 funny, +1 insightful, +1 informative, -1 troll, -1 misleading, etc."

The post also mentions moderation as well so I suggest a full read.

How would you make Lemmy nicer for yourself? in c/technology@beehaw.org

I already saw one user who posted great content including citations -- adding user tags is what I miss.
