itch.io has a huge bundle going to support 'Racial Justice and Equality'

Quoting: EverLinuxHello everybody!
Once the bundle bought, will the claimed games remain available for download after the 10 days ends this offer?
A such good offer seems nearly unrealistic so I search for the trap :woot:
Yes, they are yours to keep and add to your itch account.

Glad people enjoyed it!

Quoting: JoetjeI like reading interviews like this, always interesting. Maybe an idea to have something like this on a monthly basis?
I have a list of who I plan to reach out to. I've been trying more lately but a lot of developers are either too busy and politely say so or just don't reply. My current list I am hoping will :).

ok, at least they have prizes, but... i dont know, you can make an game by your self and sell up to millions of units, or earn an salary for making the best game for then...
No different than people building games in stuff like Roblox though, which is ridiculously popular. Roblox, however, can't be run on Linux, this can. I'm fully expecting Crayta to find its place, even I might have a go at it, looks fun.

Another option is uptick in Chromebooks that schools give out to children for remote learning. Not sure if ChromeOS is reported as something else or as Linux.
ChromeOS is separate in NetMarketShare.
