Uh, terrible example tho

#

You ok with buying an ALPHA version?

#

Dude

#

"Please note that this is an Alpha version, so it’s very possible that you experience crashes or other issues. Please report them either directly through Google Play or in the Discord so I can fix them in time." Dang, they are making you pay for forced labour

ancient forge
#

that's a sale, with obligation with responsibilities, you can ask for refund if you don't like it

fading gulch
#

Well, google policies says you get what you paid for

#

And you paid for alpha release

terse walrus
#

It doesn't always end well

I'm gonna stick with my opinion and you keep yours, fair?

#

What is so wrong with asking for donations? Genuinely curious on the hate towards donations

fading gulch
#

And that's a fact, gn all

cunning zealot
#

Hate to see it.

tidal fiber
#

Like idk what y’all think a donation means but I see it as giving money for the sole purpose of supporting a project etc. and not expecting any product or service in return

#

How does being open or closed source have any bearing on donations being okay or not

#

I’d much rather try a piece of software for free, regardless of if it’s open or closed source, and then donate if I end up liking the product

#

As opposed to buying a piece of crap

#

Open source software is cool yeah

#

But there’s a reason people choose to go the closed source route

ancient forge
#

I have nothing against closed source products, but do it like this

#

make it a sale, not donation to access

tidal fiber
#

A donation to access isn’t a donation

#

That’s a buy button

buoyant arch
#

thing here is that this is donating and access is a perk you get for supporting the project early

#

you aren’t paying for the alpha, you’re paying to support and the alpha is a bonus

#

on release it will be on the play store and will be a normal purchase

cosmic magnet
#

How come? They’re openly saying it will be free when it’s ready

I thought this was the game with the dots

#

The rhythm game

#

But I just looked it up, that’s “osu”

#

I’m just dumb

The current update is very usable after set up. Highly reccomend giving it a shot for dual screen devices.

final bear
#

Is iiSU dual screen only?

deep urchin
#

it works(?) on single screens

#

obv the entire thing doesn't quite work yet but the idea is working on single screens when its done

odd pollen
#

i personally will not be supporting iISU or anyone that is related to Usagishade.

deft drum
#

mood honestly

#

considering they've kept people on staff who directed harassment at people, i'm not super comfortable with supporting the team

#

sucks because i like hueso's work quite a bit

odd pollen
#

Wrong reaction but agreed

#

Meant to put thistbh

meager wigeon
#

cocoon exists and i'm surprised people aren't just opting for that

deft drum
#

i am! it's my launcher of choice, excited for 2.0 :D

#

console launcher is also a good pick too

#

even if i think that cocoon is better in a lot of ways

meager wigeon
#

it'll definitely be what i go with once my thor ships

#

time tracking + discord rich presence + gamehub lite is perfect

cosmic magnet
#

Now to be clear I don’t work on iiSU or anything in the emulation space, I’m just a curious cat a

fading gulch
#

And it's understandable, they want their project to be successful, but at some point they should've just started something different

meager wigeon
#

i don't think that analogy works when usagishade is a bigot and Did Worse Things To Minors and it's specifically lack of interest in supporting the people who defended him and stuck around to keep working on iiSU

cosmic magnet
#

I think Legboot answered the question, it's about staying on the project. You (Mary) somewhat answered the same. Thanks, I really was just curious what would be the reason now to openly going against a developer that didn't do anything wrong other than wrong place wrong time

deft drum
#

personally, my main issues lie with leonie remaining on staff after she directed harassment at people during the initial stuff with usagishade. it shows a history of the staff ignoring bad actors and only doing something when there's enough backlash

#

also, i personally think that the staff allowed a lot of really horrible anti-lgbt sentiment to brew during the usagishade stuff

#

just all round not fond

meager wigeon
#

i think also the fact that anybody using iiSU is entrusting their devices with software from people who've already handled a lot so poorly is also at least worth an eyebrow raise, it's not like software like this doesn't sometimes have issues

#

ex. that one shader program from a few years back or that one gmod workshop plugin that both gave computer viruses randomly with a malicious uploaded build

#

i would rather put my trust into other reputable developers who haven't had any issues with my files and their program, and it's kinda easy to when everything else is miles more feature complete than iisu's current builds (cocoon has so much good support...)

and that's before factoring in the moral standpoint of the team having a lot of issues even beyond usagi, like what lynn said

cosmic magnet
#

I gotta check out cocoon

deep urchin
#

looked up cocoon and half the image results are someone changing all the wallpapers to be scott the woz

#

instant download needless to say
