Yeah “Costs more than you think” no I think it costs about what I expected for a lossless player. DACs are a feature these days.

Launchers are a solution to DRM, not the solution. The way today’s modern market is, it’s understandable that some gamers have forgotten that there used to be games you bought directly from the publisher’s website. DRM was done by asking you to sign into your account before launching the game, a lot of games still make you do this today. There’s also the tried and true method of phoning home with a product key for DRM as well. There’s no shortage of ways to be independent, very few companies are interested in doing so because Steam is convenient.

Yeah but like, launcher isn’t a market. Game Store is the market they’re in. I’ll happily buy a game from a different store if thats the only place it’s offered or even if it’s just cheaper there. The annoyance is when they want to be Steam. I don’t want to be forced to download another launcher to play a game. If you want what Steam has, create a launcher that offers better services than Steam.

But like, why does it have to be Google? (Or this extension specifically?)

If you’re super attached to the google search results then try startpage. If you’re willing to branch out a bit try Duckduckgo, it’s based on Bing instead and lately seems like more folks prefer Bing’s engine to Google’s.

And as others have mentioned you could use any old useragent switcher to pretend to be Chrome

Yeah I’ve been trying to figure what’s up with that. There used to be really nice guides written on the github but it looks like they’re gone now for some reason.

IIRC Isn’t the Armv7 support limitation just for Revanced Manager? Just build the version you need on your computer using revanced-cli.

It’s totally fine! Public exposure essentially blasts any project with just about every combination of variables. Something is bound to slip by. I was just commenting to make sure you guys knew it was happening.

EDIT: Just got the update, everything works beautifully now. Great work!

Love the concept, though it looks like Firefox ViolentMonkey comment collapsing doesn’t work quite right. The comments end up stacked on top of each other like cards.

This one’s short and sweet. At level 4 PCs get the Score Improvement AND to pick a Feat. This has propagated throughout my whole group, but the original DM that started it reasoned "I think a lot of Feats are really cool, but a lot of people aren’t comfortable passing on their first Score Improvement to pick up something situational. So they get a freebie, because I want to see what uses they come up with.
