with piracy you can boycott games without even stopping yourself from playing them.

Well except for any Xbox peripherals such as controllers, or games published or made by studios owned by Microsoft. It's not just Windows OS.

I mean Nintendo isn't really pro-consumer either. I'm not sure if they donate or support genocide, but they are pretty capitalistic to a fault.

If you know a manufacturer that‘s handing out world class controllers for free let me know, but otherwise I didn‘t ask.

Glad I‘ve waited for the Switch 2 pro controller to come out. I‘m in need of a new one and Xbox probably would‘ve been my second choice. And yes I‘ve looked into 8bitdio and what not, but they‘re not cheap either and I was happy with my switch pro for 7 years until recently.

wrote 16 days ago last edited byits in fact the best boycott. rub it in their faces and force them to spend millions in DRM, or pay up.

use linux. that will remove everything microsoft.
i made the change a few years back, and my wife made the change a few months ago. #worth
wrote 16 days ago last edited byWell, it's not so simple for gaming. People who don't already own a gaming PC will need to drop a lot of money to buy one, and then get used to gaming on Linux (which can be janky, as I'm sure you know).
But, it's worth it.

wrote 16 days ago last edited byYep, I have the 2.4ghz dongle ones with hall effect sensors and charging stand. Its just better and cheaper. The dongle is so that I don't have to sync, I kinda like the whole plug in and it just works.
