[ANSWERED] What's going on with some person seemingly called "PirateSoftware" and the stop killing games campaign? (lemmy.abnormalbeings.space)

Saw people talking in comments at several places now, expressing animosity towards them to say the least, always presented as something that everyone seems to know about.

Small note: For the end of life. They don't have to release all server binaries. Just the API documentation and some binaries (without the libraries that they can't share) would be more than enough. (Basically extremely minimal additional work for the developer)

Alternatively, there should be visible disclaimer next to the price (We promise the game is playable until xxx). So the consumer would be informed that what they are "buying" is temporary.

Leaving this here for other people who maybe could get a bad impression about putting extra work for developers that could discriminate against indies.
