Hey, Dehydrated. I really wish you wouldn't spam the same article in 20 places a few seconds apart.

- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I mean isn't that how it's supposed to be done? You post to all relevant communities? Lemmy even has a feature to deduplicate posts in your feed that have the same link URL, to reduce the repetition in your feed
If it's still annoying then maybe the software needs to handle it better, because I don't think only posting to a single community is good. Everyone else gets left out, especially when you consider some communities will be on defederated instances.
Is the cheating in LoL that bad from somebody who regularly plays at least middle level ranked games? I am very glad to have it for Valorant compared to the mess Counter-Strike is in. Kernel level anti-cheats are a must nowadays to lift the barrier to entry which excludes quite a bunch of cheaters.
cheaters control the hardware, there will always be workarounds and cheaters will end up cheating anyway. the financial incentive is there: cheaters pay good money and even subscriptions for cheats.
legitimate players on the other hand get a slower game, invasive and insecure anticheat, and is more limited otherwise (eg. linux cant play lol anymore, etc)
Do you know how clean Valorant is to play compared to Counter-Strike? Definitely worth it. Shooters just don't work anymore without kernel level anti-cheat. The demand is real that even third party add-ons are used to play with them, e. g. Face It for Counter-Strike. It doesn't stop all cheats and never will, but makes cheating expensive enough to exclude many.
The famous Escape from Tarkov Wiggle video should put it into perspective.
The Linux - FOSS user group of Lemmy is obviously mad, but that is the new reality.
no because it doesnt run on my machine and i dont want riot poking around my computer but i dont remember seeing a cheater in csgo in a loong time. i havent played cs in a while, but kernel level anticheat will eventually be cracked if it isnt already, it is inevitable.
Looks like I can't play league anymore I switched to full Linux recently
It's really unfortunate. Wonder if there will be a workaround or if that's even possible. I'm not keeping a windows boot just for League of Legends tbh
I've never run a virtual machine I wonder if that would make it possible. But yeah I don't want to dual boot
