Cool. 😃
Oh... Aaaaaaaand it's fucked.
Yes it's fucked because running servers costs a lot of money and SteamDB runs on donations. So I hope you did donate at some point when you used their services and disapprove of this development.
Being financial able to contribute is required to validate an opinion. Just like only the wealthy should vote.
Well if the opinion is „they shouldn’t be bought to sustain themselves financially“, yes.
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.
Does my life time membership to nexus mods mean I also get life time membership to steam DB now? If not then fuck off nexus mods you sack of dog shit. I already regret how shitty you turned your site into don't do it twice.
If it does then my point still stands but I will also take advantage of this.
