oh god Songtradr’s takeover of #Bandcamp has ended up being way worse than anyone expected much more quickly. tl;dr: Songtradr isn’t honoring the union, has locked out employees from critical systems, and is basically trying to steamroll everyone in the handoff.

At the very least this means this #bandcampfriday might not be so great, and most likely everything about bandcamp is going to shit very rapidly.

Basically the concern from a lot of devs is MS wanted a thing like the app store, where they take a huge cut and lock out other methods of distrubution
@Gankra No, that's about right unless you count things like Steam.
Partially because well trusting the MS Store seemed like a not great idea
Scene: the Warhammer 40k universe. An inquisitor. A very, very angry inquisitor.
Because the Culture found this universe and assigned him a slap-drone. So every ten seconds or so a loud noise plays that drowns out whatever he has to say and there's dozens of half-melted pistols around from his attempts to shoot the thing.
