  • Ironically, I feel the community that is most apt to fall in line with their project goals, and want to support this change, is also the community they are currently outcasting. Personally I stopped using GOG when it stopped working easily on my Debian system. I shouldn’t need to use a third party program to get it to work, and I swear it feels like they intentionally made it so WINE no longer works for it.

    For a project that is supposedly for open use and game preservation, they don’t make it easy to actually do so.

    the amount of software I’ve used that lacks this type of system is aggravating. How hard is it to keep an object of property names, and if the name isn’t in it then it errors.

    this can be continued into command line as well. if flag -z doesn’t exist, you shouldn’t allow me to run a command with it. It’s clear I am trying to do something (incorrectly) thinking -z is something it isn’t, just error it and tell me that.
