Quoting: MilesWhile it's ethically sus, is that illegal or even against any of the game's open source license or Steam agreements/rules?

ig as soon as you charge money for it there will be something against that in the license

Quoting: eroldrucan we even report it?

Of course - i just did.
Really annoying that scumbags like this exist.

It's not just ripping the devs of, but damaging the project in multiple ways.
As the project lead writes in the Steam forums:

I'm the project leader of this game and I'm saddened I wasn't consulted for this. There are reasons 0 A.D.: Empires Ascendant is not on steam yet.

Making it available here as implications on the moderation and the server load of the lobby and its limited resources that should not be taken lightly. It also has some implications for the future of the game concerning reviews which could doom its opportunities. The project is not done yet and it will continue to evolve.

Quoting: GuestDo I understand that correctly, we should stop using soft cuz dev removed Code of Conduct, or there is another reason than political drama?

You could probably classify 'removing all other contributors from the repo' as a political drama - for me, it disqualifies that person from being trustworthy enough to handle a foss-project.

What a shame. But after a quick glance, atlauncher looks quite nice, never heard of that before!

Quoting: KohriasSeems like Microsoft is blocking polymc now. Existing MS accounts in polymc went into status "expired" and trying to register a new MS account does not work.

I guess that is the reason for the latest commit that updates the MSA Client ID :grin:
But yeah, i wanted to remove polymc from the authorized apps and it wasn't there anymore, so i'm impressed microsoft reacted so quickly!

Quoting: MarlockAFAIK there are even provider-agnostic methods for this sort of thing, but anything beyond smartphone as token is a rare beast to see actually implemented nowadays, let alone a real agnostic implementation.

Probably the most widely used one is FIDO2 ig?
But i agree that i would wish more adoption for that - cloudflare is currently giving away a coupon for yubikeys (i'm still waiting on mine though) to get them pretty cheap. In the past i was hesitant to pick one up for 50+ bucks (and you should have at least two to have a backup) with that low adoption, but for 10-20 bucks a pop it's a no-brainer imho.

But at least nowadays TOTP is widely used - i curse the days where many providers thought it was a good idea to implement their own F2A with their own bullshit app. Steam is still one of those, but at least on a rooted phone you can extract the secret and use it in another 2FA app...

Quoting: MarlockIt's a place you can download the apk file (a known good and updated version) manually. If you do that you can install it over the current version. Works more reliably than Aurora.

That much is apparent from the 'standalone apk' part ;)

Quoting: MarlockDoesn't seem to have any auto-update method though.

That is what i was wondering, i'm way too lazy to manually update stuff...what are we, windows users?

Quoting: Marlockhttps://store.steampowered.com/mobile [External Link]

care to elaborate how that link is related to my question? At least i can't find any word about an updater function there...

Anyone knows if the standalone apk has an updater? Aurora Store being finnicky as it is i tend to avoid playstore stuff as much as possible...

The drag and drop surely is nice :D

Bottles really is a nice piece of software (even though using the GTK design ;P)

As Stadia being Linux based didn't yield the hoped for increase in (released) native versions, it's not much of a loss in my book tbh. But i must say - it's a nice move to refund everything!
