That and stock market infinite up. That’s why Valve is doing well because they are a private non-stock company

Need more private companies like Valve, and some community open source options built up too

We seriously need to get open source PC console community-made offerings up and running. To share the load of building that up. Community built up competitors and Valve will be enough.

Still I also would like to see some new players come in too.

Are there any companies that would do well in gaming? What if AMD made their own console?

What the fuck indeed whoa

The stock market wants it all. Infinite is no good. This is why Valve is best in that regard. Private company that moves as one without external influences

No no no there’s lots of good happening you just to look out and see it. Yes a lot of the bad news sucks but there is a lot of good still happening and a lot of people getting things done:

Read https://goodgoodgood.co/, and https://goodnewsnetwork.org/. Also watch Good News (That’s the name) and Sam Bentley YouTube channels

For good good good.co there is also 2 articles where they cover studies on Hope (They cover many other studies, hopeful and good news too in their other articles):

1. New study finds hope key to a meaningful life

You can do anything in this life. Keep going. Connect with others and do! Find things you enjoy doing and find fulfillment from in life! Much love to you brother/sister!

If anything Phil deserves his own company. If he made the call I’m sure many he got to know at Xbox and Microsoft would answer the call and make a new company with him

Hoping he would especially one like Valve. But it all depends on if he would be up for that and if everyone asked him to to show he would have huge support from day one

Who replaced him?

Phil if you somehow read this then please make a new company!!! Many will follow you from Microsoft and Xbox to whatever you decide to do. It is time for a new company similar to Valve to rise up!

If you don’t want to then that makes sense. You have enough at Xbox and with Microsoft over the years

Thanks for doing your best under the slop that Microslop has dumped on Xbox over all these years. Salute!

Many people aren’t being made aware of open source stuff. We are barely cracking surface in Linux and much less in social media. Keep letting people know and encourage them to move to them!!

We need people getting people in and sharing it all the time in their back pocket at the ready to talk about it. Seriously feels like I am one of the few pushing Loops up. Same with other people social media: Stoat, XMPP, Session, Molly/Signal, Mastodon, Pixelfed, etc

facts also OP please get other indie game studio people to bring their communities in too. Growing Indie Game studios presence would help grow this place in near and long term for Lemmy/Piefed
