Unity bailed itself out eh?
No
In 2019 they also performed a retroactive terms of service change and after the backlash they changed their TOS to basically say "this can never ever happen again"
A few months before this recent dumbfuck decision, they actually went back and removed the part of their TOS and that they couldn't make retroactive changes to the TOS and then hoped everyone forgot.
What they've done this time was a calculated business decision where they knew they'd piss people off and just expected most to suck it up and deal with it like they have every other time. They calculated very poorly here though as this was just the straw the fucked the camel raw and everyone is jumping ship. They have proven repeatedly they aren't an engine development prioritized company anymore, they have proven repeatedly that have no issues lying to paying customers and doing shady backdoor shit.
What they did a few days ago was a "whoopsie we tried to fuck you again and it didnt work so we'llwalk it back for now" and for the second time have promised that this retroactive change can't happen again. A second promise days after they broke that promise.
Not really. They fucked up their business contracts/ reputations and there's still a massive push to leave them in dust/ past. There's no undoing how massively they fucked up.

Brought to you by Kia: Who better than a company who can't fix a key switch to cover dumpster fires! Kia: Movement That Inspires Car Theft.
Didn't they also use child labour in the US?
I think you might be confusing them with the other major Korean car maker Hyundai but it could have been both!
Kia and Hyundai use a lot of the same parts, so if one was doing it, it's likely both were.
It's because Hyundai is the largest shareholder of Kia and Hyundai supplies parts for Kia and Renault in Korea
OP, social media usage is down across the board. These platforms won't truly die until the next cycle of growth. Autumn? Winter? Usually gaming goes up when the cold weather comes around. Perhaps we will see growth then. We ought to be making sure we make communities for each new game that comes out, if an instance creators goal is to attract a lot of people. If they prefer quality, well, keep on this course. Lemmy is amazing.

I’m betting reddit, fuck spez
Reddit sucks but xitter and tiktok easily rub the floor with it!
We really need to get people to get the word out on Lemmy.
I'm on the fence on this one because on one hand, more content is always a good thing. On the other, more people will bring the attention of corporate capitalists
They already have, just take a look at the increased number of concern trolls, blatant advertisement, etc.

Why is tiktok so high up, It feels like regular shitty social media, not nearly as bad or boring as instagram, facebook, and metaverse.
wait yeah why is tiktok above metaverse lol
gweilos mad, that's literally it
I think as a format memes are very fun on TikTok cause they're expected to always have a sound component so it engages more senses than just vision, just make a good algorithm

Since I am side loading Apollo still, Reddit overall is still good. I currently don’t see much change because of this. However, when my RedditAPI key is revoked and I’m unable to generate a new API key, there is no way I can keep using it. I’ve got 5 different Reddit apps on my phone, including Apollo, and they all suck.
