@VD15 @zemichi @coolboymew it pisses off developers too, see the series x/s split

@coolboymew @zemichi @mint It's also a business strategy shift. In 2020, Phil Spencer infamously stated that he hated generation exclusives, only to backpedal this a few months later. Halo Infinite was still on the One though you needed a One X to run it at a decent framerate. A lot of devs will make cross gen games historically and when the only difference is "oh the Series X has a faster GPU and CPU", it's easy to see why they'd hold out so long.

https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/xbox-boss-says-generation-exclusives-are-completely-counter-to-what-gaming-is-about/

In particular the Series S pissed off developers because Microsoft was insistent that developers have feature parity between both (while Sony didn't). This infamously bit Microsoft when Baldur's Gate 3 launched on even the Mac first before the Xbox, leading MS to change their strategy with that.

@mint @zemichi @coolboymew It's not the same BC.

The PS1/2/3 did not share the same architecture, or OS setup. The PS4, Pro, and 5 share the same OS and software architecture. The Pro and 5 run PS4 games better than on a PS4. The same goes with the Xbox One/X/Series S/X. You can write a game for the Xbox One and the Series S/X/One X will run it faster with fewer framerate drops.

@coolboymew @zemichi The other thing about the PS5/Series and why normies don't care about the "no games" jokes, is that one of the things the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro did was if you run a game that is not specifically "optimized" or marked as an enhanced game, you won't get 4k native resolutions but you'll get a higher framerate as the game has more CPU/GPU power.

So games that had framerate issues on the One and PS4 ran better on the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro. The same applies to an even more dramatic extent on the Xbox Series X/S and PS5. It's crazy playing BF4 on a One X and seeing it run fast without the drops it was known for on the One, and that's not even a Series S/X.

Joe Normie treats it as "wow I can run Fortnite faster than on the PS4".

@zemichi @coolboymew The PS5 is suffering from the same problem OS/2 and some of the Android competitors with Android app support did.

"If more people have the PS4, let's target the PS4, it does everything we want to anyway for this game".

There's new console games coming out on the PS4 that will play fine on the PS5 and devs don't care because people will buy the PS5 and still use it as a PS4.

@alex it's going to tank if he caves to their demands, but it would also be 100% symbolic of everything wrong with the mastodon side and bluesky as well in one move.

The trick with software devs like this is to just turn the car stereo playing music loud even louder and keep the window rolled up.

@arcanicanis @i @mint @foxxy To add to that, at least one instance software explicitly has a feature where you can reject deletes, and many of them either openly or subtly use this on the entire network.
https://docs-develop.pleroma.social/backend/configuration/mrf/

And then on top of that, many fedi instance stacks do not "clear" old cached media, so a deleted post can sometimes be seen with the old media intact on one of these instances.

That's not getting into stuff like boardreader scraping one fedi instance a while back and that same instance owner getting clueless FBI agent emails about content hosted on other instances (some instance user made a post that got the user banned on another instance threatening a certain rich American oligarch who runs a company that rhymes with Crack Rock).

Let's take a look at how Tumblrized "open and accepting" fandoms are doing.

Oh right, fans are killing themselves after being harassed over *checks notes* obsessing over the idea of characters having sex with each other.
