@Noble_Draconian @EvanZir To be clear, I don't know what all the marketplace fees are for UGC and I'm not making an opinion on them. My point is only to your premise

[Garret @Lskids1]

@Noble_Draconian @EvanZir If anything the revenue split should be harder on UGC creators than game developers because they don't bring and keep players on the platform. The game developers are providing a service for UGC creators, not the other way around.

@sleitnick It's like Microsoft said. "Yeah we know search is bad, so we'll make a good one for the people who actually care"

[Garret @Lskids1]

@FracturedOreo For the same reason that social media is mostly advertisements and AI slop. It's not about consciously playing something high quality and choosing to pay for it, it's about subliminal dopamine fed impulses training an algorithm on what holds your attention the longest

@sleitnick Self-hosting is only unsafe if done improperly. I highly recommend self-hosting whenever possible. No static IP is necessary

@sleitnick Dynamic DNS

@sleitnick It definitely depends what you're running on it, but in general yeah UPS is mostly to prevent interruptions due to short outages, brown outs, and allow time for graceful shutdowns. The most you can normally hope for is 30-60 minutes if you over-spec the UPS

Time to find my new "most awkward RDC photo" for all of my profile pictures.

@ScriptOnRoblox The fact that developers that are this well integrated into the platform do not understand the metrics available to us means there is a lot of missing information in documentation.

I have an idea of the difference, but also do not feel confident enough to actually give an andwer

So happy to have received an invite for Pacer Test to join the line up. Was so much fun working on some special decorations for this!

@SigmaTechRBLX My point was not that it is without consequences, but that identity theft is not one of them and identity/credit monitoring would be moot.

Perhaps instead a service that de-lists your contact information like incogni (idk if any service is any good or not)

[Garret @Lskids1]

@ScriptOff41968 Not necessarily disagreeing,

Who is harmed by an "inventor backed company... squeezing the last bit of life out of a game to make a quick buck?"

Assuming the owner of the game has a good reason (I can think of a few) and is competent to make the decision

[Garret @Lskids1]

@sleitnick Yes. Then start a home lab.

Not to mention remote desktop
