I'll echo what most others say here: stop using discord and everything microsoft.

And maybe also reconsider if modern gaming is a worthwhile passtime.

Look, I love a good game as much as the next person. But with everything that is coming to light lately I can't shake the feeling that I want as little digital backdoors for their tentacles around. Because they are harvesting data all over the place.

Modern tripple A games are shitty 9 times out of 10, and remaining good ones are way overpriced. But gaming is on all time rise, the amount of incredible games around, made by passionate and talented people are staggering. Indy is where it's at!
