      Installing Linux is sort of the equivalent of moving to Canada when one doesn’t like US political trends. Nope, we’ve got to fight for the freedoms we have today, where we have them today.

      These statements are consistent. 99.9% of game playing is on mobile, console, and PC. A game developer who’s frustrated with other platforms can’t just retreat to Linux. They couldn’t earn a living. We have to fight for our freedoms on today’s platforms as they stand.

      What are those rights? I think it’s the user’s right to install software of their choosing from sources of their choosing, developers’ right to release software on their own, and competition among stores.

      Does this mean ever game developer has an obligation to release their game on every store? No, it’s their creative work, and they have a right to choose how to distribute it. That includes the right to negotiate store terms and reject stores that don’t pay them adequately.

      and does this mean that if we, costumers, want to buy a game on a certain store because it's our preference, it's our gaming experience with features, and it's better for us for pricing and security, we can't? No, you said it, MULTI STORE SHOULD BE A THING but "epic exclusive"😑

      "each individual" yes, i know they have rights to choose a store that gives them huge loads of money, but we costumers, the ones who also pay to use their product and follow their products with joy to have a really good time playing, have no word?

      This is the balance developers and stores must strike in decisions on whether to do business together and on what terms.

          "We have to fight for our freedoms on today’s platforms as they stand.", and isn't that what some customers are doing complaining about epic? and that devs like Laylacode, AOne Games, and even CEO like Pitchford and you are calling trolls?

          You can’t have a “right to buy every game on Steam” without taking away every developer’s right to release their game however they choose.
