What the fuck?! Isn't artistic freedom protected by first amendment? Or are artists silently suffering, ignorant of their rights, or too lazy to assert them? Or do they think it would be ridiculous to go to court because they're not allowed to paint anything obsceneXD Although I think it's all about the sanctimonious old farts who are the advertisers and hosts.
God I'm so sick of people intentionally misinterpreting freedom of speech.
It's worse than you think. Look at the above image again. Notice the dollar sign?
The money goes not to the single person, but a team of devs, so it's not that big amount of money
Read my statement again and then mull it over..
$800 is a really poor existence in Russia, average rent in Moscow for 1-room flat is $700. In Saint-Petersburg it's $500.
We can literally look up the economic data right now. The cost of living in Russia is 54% lower than in the United States.
Dude, I don't need to look up at the economic data, I live in Russia. It's not a third-world country, and the inflation rates are insane because of the war (if you like the economic data, the bank rate is 21%). Food and rent are incredibly expensive now.
That doesn't change the fact that the U.S. dollar is worth more in Russia. I've already looked this up. The point of this conversation was that the money that passes through Patreon and SubscribeStar goes a lot farther in Russia than it does in the U.S.
| Can I trust you? Nope, and you shouldn't trust on anybody on the Internet who gives you a file. Scan for viruses (e.g., virustotal), copy the code inside (You can use notepad) and ask ChatGPT, Deepseek or any AI you trust, before running the game. If you're a little paranoid (like me), always open files on a Sandbox |
You're implying someone vaguely smart enough to conceal a virus under false pretenses and use reverse psychology would also somehow be dumb enough to do something that'd indirectly make these devs happy...
Haha, it's only bc i'm pretty suspicious of any file I download, and I use this footer to any file I upload here.
It just blocks the page loading telling that is dangerous and as threat category it states as URL: Blacklist
