  • You should also know they were bought a couple years back by IGN, and have drastically increased the minimum “tip” amount in bundles that you give them while also hiding the sliders more. Instead of being the $1 of old humble, its now $7.50.

    They also changed the choice discount you get on their direct store to slowly ramp up to 20% only when you stay subscribed for 12 months straight. It resets to 0% if you pause a month. The 20% off also has random exclusions, so it just doesn’t apply, or applies at some lesser rate at their whim.

    Its not a bad site, but it’s slowly enshittifying a hallowed name in gaming.






  • Sure. His first comment excused this brutal US behavior by saying “Europe has immigration laws too,” implying what the US just did to a 35 yr legal, green card holding US resident was fine and ordinary.

    His second comment ignored me asking about how Europe treats immigrants and answered a different question by saying that “they can’t just stay in Europe.”

    This has almost nothing to do with what happened to this man. He has been detained in his legal country of residence, his home of 35 years, for no crime. He was detained while literally leaving the country, something that you would expect immigration would want if they didn’t want him here.

    At no point did he “stay too long” in the US as that isn’t possible. Even if he somehow could, which he could not, he was still literally leaving.

    So this case is nothing like European laws having to do with overstaying a visa. Bringing it up in a “duh guys, it’s just like the laws everywhere else” way is a disingenuous deflection from the fact that no, it is not. That is why they are being downvoted.
