Yeah they tricked people into believing that Apple added something that allowed users to charge their phones by microwaving them

It’s always the people that don’t have a clue.

It’s also always the people that think they’ll get some benefit out of AI taking over. When they’re absolutely part of the group that’ll be replaced by AI.

The way you downplay it sounds a lot like you’re trying to make it out as if it’s not an issue.

Games taking up resources doesn’t change anything I said either. Funnily enough though the same thing applies to games, users shouldn’t have to put up with games that take up unnecessary resources either. Just like they shouldn’t have to deal with bloatware launchers that take up unnecessary resources and throw more hoops to jump through.

Not really sure why you’re defending something that’s worse for you. What’s in it for you that you’d rather defend unnecessary launchers over not having to deal with them?

It’s not just one launcher in a lot of cases. Many cases have you also run another launcher such as Ubisoft and EA games that require their launchers to run along side Steam. It all adds up and it doesn’t need to be that way nor does it need defending.

I don’t really understand why you’re defending something thats worse for you than the alternative.

It doesn’t stop being an issue just because you can brush it under the rug and ignore it.

The point is that the user shouldn’t have to work around these extra launchers. How about companies just stop pushing their own bloatware. If you buy a game through Steam, it should just require Steam. Same for GOG and all the others.

And those extra launchers take up unnecessary resources and extra steps between you and the game.

If I buy a game on one launcher, I should only have to deal with that launcher.
