Digital game distribution and preservation platform GOG is asking players for support going into the future as it expands its efforts.

While I personally pitch in a few bucks every other purchase, I think they could more open and responsive on their preservation efforts.

I’d be much happier with GoG if they opensourced most of their stuff and supported stuff like Stop Killing Games.

For now, I buy games from them and backup the installers, but until they become more open, especially towards Linux, and stop using shit like Discord, my support will just be in the form of shopping for games I want. Nothing more.

A sensible stance.
