I’d tip the developers, but not the shareholders or execs who treat the developers like slaves…

Nah man. Tipping has its place and it’s not to take the place of regular payment for goods. Developer makes a product, I’ll buy it like a product.

Expanding the scope of tipping is not good.

Tipping is a exploitive behavior used to underpay staff with a high variance system. Employers need to pay a living wage.

Rules:

  • 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
  • 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
  • 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
