For context : have no idea how they found about it, but I love that they are illuminating indie games. And VICE.com has 12 million monthly readers. This is insane for me , because for a long time I was struggling for the game to be noticed. (If you want to follow how development of the game is going, a simple wishlist on Steam will be well appreciated.

It used to be a legitimate choice to publish for Windows. Even when Microsoft started trying to force every private file into the cloud, I wouldn't have chosen such drastic words. But with the fall of the divided states of america to an authoritarian regime of rapist / pedo billionaires, if you still develop for Windows, where do you draw the line? Gas chambers? And my objection to Windows is not because of Microsoft. It's because of being the government system, that the totalitarian government has its hands on all kinds of backdoors and will use them to sabotage democracies whereever they can.

I've not often seen such a perfectly on the nose example of a slippery slope argument, so I guess thank you for that.

(fuck nazis, but) bro you are 10000% too deep into this. It's just an operating system. You might as well boycott paper because they use a lot of that in the white house too

Also I need to use Windows anyway for work so it's going to be dual booted anyway and if it's going to be dual booted anyway then the entire "supporting them" argument is irrelevant.

Also right-wing fascists developed Lemmy, so a little bit of worldview consistency would be nice
