What if a band had very vocal Nazi beliefs even lyrically, would you still like them because the music was good?

I don't see how that's relevant to be honest. Twitter users didn't choose for Musk to be in charge, and I'm sure a lot remaining users hate him.

Lol that is you

I said I don't use twitter, what's your point ?

People were already on twitter before some right wing weirdo bought it. They just kept using it because the reality is normies don't know better or don't care. I'm not saying it's a good thing, but saying every X user is a fascist seams an oversimplification.

That's just not true. My mate uses it to follow music bands they like. The problem we have with X is that everybody uses it so you have to use it you wanna stay in the loop. I don't use I myself but i can understand why people still do.

It's also keeping people from even considering linux for gaming so I don't share your sentiment. Like it or not, these games are insanely popular. My gaming buddies won't even think of switching to linux until 100% of the games they play are working on it, and that include "shitty MMO Battle Royale" I'm sorry to say.

I never ever received that registration email. Also, the content is not viewable without an account. Disappointing, especially considering the countdown to release which turned out to be a countdown to nothing.

I realize this in not answering your question, but I thought you might like to know that some people share access to their antenna on the web at http://websdr.org/. This sdr webapp lets you listen to the airbands from their antennas basically, and each user can tune it to their own frequency at the same time.

Mumble is so underrated. It does one job and but does it very well.

Thanks for the heads-up. I messaged them my EA handle.

edit: wow it actually worked! My account is now unbanned!

Why would I open this post if I was actually cheating ? The whole point is that I got banned but never cheated. This is a false positive related to playing with proton.

I did try to create a new account, but it's really annoying because my original EA account is linked to my steam account, and cannot be unlinked. So I would need another steam account as well. Unless I can figure out a way to play without steam, which I'm not sure how to do because of... you guessed it, fucking anti-cheat.

I never spend money on in-game items, so technically I was already not buying from them. I just enjoyed playing this game with my friends is all.

Got greeted with this message today. I've been playing Apex on linux for more than a year. Not sure if this could be related? Is this just me?

I've contested the ban and I'm currently waiting for a response from ea support.

UPDATE : Got an email response from EA today. It's basically a generic message saying that my account was associated with "cheating practices" and so they will not remove the ban.

This is absolutely fucking ridiculous! I've been playing this game since 2020 and have 3K+ hours on record, now this shit happens and there's no recourse ? Fuck this company.

To be fair, I didn't see the option on other lemmy apps I've tried, but I use the crosspost feature a lot on desktop, and would really love that feature on Boost.

The app is really nice tho, thank you for this great first release.
