      You don’t. Gamers, are generally happy to bow to their corporate overlords for some reason.

      Source: am a gamer. And I admit I do put up with some of that bullshit too.

        I think that behaviour pattern has it’s roots in the perceived dominance of Microsoft windows in the gaming sphere - we can fix that by encouraging people to game with linux.

      Why? Discord is still as functional as ever. Why would I move platform?

        Because it locks you out from even seeing the mods and stuff if you don’t have an account. Old time forums were better.
