It was a (half) joke about GLaDOS being attractive to lesbians for specific reasons, and cishet men not really getting it. But also, I don’t care if it’s a “fan theory?” The character is like, a complete blank canvas, so I think it’s kind of silly to say she isn’t queer because it isn’t like, “part of the lore.”

GLaDOS also has pretty specific character traits that are easy to fuck up if you don’t understand why they’re endearing, which is more of the point.

I’m NGL, if it doesn’t have a queer woman director, I don’t know if they’ll get why it works.

Edit: lol, seriously didn’t expect that to piss you guys off, but then again, a reminder of the demos on Lemmy, whether they say it or not.

What the fuck do you think you’re saying rn?

You’re still wrong even if it made sense to suggest those aren’t interrelated. They’re of course free to have that opinion because they’re just taking the creator’s own words as honest.

Dude…it isn’t an “opinion.”

Guy was even apparently looking for a replacement for himself for years before deciding to sell after burnout. So yes, saying it is because people did not donate isn’t really consistent with the evidence and explicit reasoning the owner gave. You are not only expressing an opinion, but an unsubstantiated one.

Also, yes, it is hardly fair to say that people don’t have a right to feel upset that a free service has the potential to no longer be free. In fact, what you’ve described, the need to spend money to do so, is antithetical to the philosophy behind that model. Chill out and adopt a more understanding perspective, it is seriously less work and more effective.

Right, did you look up if they sold because of financial hardship? Pretty sure everything I’ve read has been about its owner personally suffering burnout and disillusionment with the current tech and internet landscape.

Fuckin finally, the Android app is garbage.

I mean, if you’re able to find one, I don’t think anyone is going to think it’s weird. The owner and employees would also likely just be glad that they have someone coming in.
