Humble Bundle replacing purchase sliders with less generous options
25 Apr 2021 at 9:30 am UTC

Quoting: Protektor
Quoting: 14The slider change kinda sucks, but who else is doing what they're doing? Don't boycott. What for, anyway? Then we have zero places like them.

That said, my game buying is lower than it was years ago. And their bundles are often weak on native Linux support. So, I find myself also buying more eBooks from Humble lately than games like mirv.
Amazon has offered for a long time the option to use their Smile program so everything you buy from Amazon, a percentage of it goes to the charity of your choice. So Humble Bundle isn't the only one doing this. Also with Amazon Smile it isn't some things, it is everything you buy from Amazon earns a percentage for the charity.

True, however many PC games are not available on Amazon. And I don't like buying eBooks from them either because of the DRM. Aaaand, Amazon Smile only donates 0.5% of eligible purchases. Overall, I don't see this as comparable to Humble.

Quoting: CyrilI didn't buy anything on Humble for a long time, and I'm pretty sure I won't in the future.
I hope a lot of people will simply boycott them...

Yeah, sure! :sick:

Ubuntu 21.04 is out now with Wayland by default and a new dark theme
24 Apr 2021 at 4:18 am UTC

TBH, I don't know much about Wayland. But I am still happy to see Ubuntu switching to it because I like new things and it will likely speed up development.

Proton Experimental gets upgraded, Forza Horizon 4 playable and Origin Overlay works
24 Apr 2021 at 4:12 am UTC

Quoting: KillYourFM"Forza Horizon 4 is playable."
SOLD.

I'm almost there with you, except I'll wait for a released version of mesa to trickle to my computer in my normal upgrade routines. I messed with mesa-git for Cyberpunk 2077 'cause I was so excited. And I did get it all to work. But I'm not gonna go through all that again every time.
