Roughly 1,800 people are being put out of work, but hey, at least the share price is going up.

    They made a decision that is bad for game developers and your response is to punish … game developers?

        Obviously you can buy and not buy whatever you want, but usually if you’re going to boycott a business, you would pick the one whose decisions you disagree with (Unity), not the victims (game developers)

          Yes, but gamers don’t buy game engines, they buy games. And part of the money they payed for the games goes to the engine creator. If you want to boycott unity, you have to boycott games made in unity.

      Yep. I don’t want to fund Unity even second-hand at this point. Using Unity is a business decision, and if that’s the kind of business decision you make, we’re not doing business.

      Plus, I’ve done my own game dev in the Godot engine long before Unity shit the dishwasher.
