In some cases it took people 2 to 4 days to release a working version without Denuvo
2 to 4 days? How about months and counting? Not to mention many Denuvo protected games are only playable through Switch emulation, something that might end soon.
I’d be surprised if there WASN’T reliable data that confirms a significant loss in sales if they launched without Denuvo.
Linux Hater’s Blog was half satire and half honest criticism.
This reminds me of the old linux hater’s blog post “At least we don’t have any viruses”.
It’s already there. Here’s yours (use desktop mode if you’re on mobile).
And those who want to review every single one manually can still do that.
But will they? This tool promotes blindly trusting another instance block list without due diligence from the admin.
this process and improves Lemmy’s capability to protect it’s users from spam and brigading
That assumes defederation only happens in those cases. You have an account from lemmy.world, so I guess you trust that instance. You know, the same instance that preemptively defederated from hexbear.net for political reasons. You see the problem?
This is a terrible idea that steers lemmy into being an echo chamber. Let admins use their own judgement.
There are two Linux paradigms that I consider stupid. One is the use of centralized software repositories managed by the distro instead of individual developer maintained installers. The other one is file system case sensibility. They already admitted defeat on the first one with the rise of containerised applications. I wonder how much longer they’ll keep the charade on the second one.
