Yesterday, July 1st, they announced the Alpha release of this next-generation mod manager and their new Product Manager got in touch to mention they “would be really keen to get feedback from Linux users”. So this is your chance to ensure Linux (and Steam Deck) finally become a first-class citizen for game modding.

    Yeah, no. Allowing this kind of fuckwittery excludes other people from the platform. How do you think the average minority player feels when people create mods specifically to turn non-white characters white? If you want these things available, go ahead and create your own platform - but don’t force others to swallow your racist, sexist bullshit.

    Or, to make it short: too bad you feel discriminated against while trying to discriminate against others.

      How do you feel when someone turns everything not Shrek into Shrek? Who gives a damn? Nexus didn’t pull rank with the BG3 mod that makes everyone gay. The fact that one group in the category is bigger than the other doesn’t matter. That’s just discriminating specifically against the majority which makes no more sense than discriminating against the minority. Pick a stance that isn’t hypocritical. You can have your all gay wonderland but they can’t have their all straight wonderland? Get fucked. Get fucked however you like. I’m personally only interested in gameplay and graphical improvements, but I won’t waste a moment dealing with a discriminatory host like Nexus.

        The idea that this is in any way comparable to my previous example shows the amount of empathy people with your positions have for other groups: none at all.

          Being gay is wrong, but this idiot can JAQ off in public all day without shame? Disgusting.

            Dude. Lemmy is also another place where minorities don’t respect or even acknowledge the majority preferences.

            I would rather let people be whoever they want to be in their own privacy and not try to rub it in everyones faces.

              Yeah that much is clear. I’m all about the alternatives when it’s freedom and open source software, but when it’s 'haha fuck those straight people because someone was mean to me and made me embarrassed in middle school", that shit is just childish echo chamber nonsense. It’s okay to be into whatever sex stuff you’re about. It’s okay if someone else’s sex stuff feels like bad vibes to you. Shit is weird. It’s not okay to dictate availability of that shit for someone else. That’s why I don’t fuck with Nexus mods. What else are they hiding from me?
