I disagree. Ubisoft has been very consistently trash for a while.

Of course not lol. The CMS I usually use stores it as HTML in the database, so I have a go-to HTML sanitization plugin with a tag whitelist. I wish it used markdown or something similar under the hood instead, but it is what it is.

You'd save it to the database in the same field as the rest of the text. You don't store the positions or anything like that - you'd store the text with HTML and have the front end render it as expected.

For instance, the database could have the following text:

Hello <strong>World</strong>

And the front end just renders HTML.

Alternatively, you could store Markdown syntax if you're hesitant to allow HTML.

EDIT: as always, if you store raw HTML, don't forget to sanitize it.

So... anybody else have to read that title a second time because they missed a letter?

4!? Since when was there a Jurassic World 2 and 3? Did they not do any promotions of them or something or do I live under a rock?

Nintendo issued an apology in 2020 over the issue, but argued that players who purchased the items were bound by the user agreement of the Nintendo Switch and thus ineligible to participate in a class action lawsuit against the company.

I'm not a lawyer, but this seems suspicious. How would this work? If I purchase a product in a retail store, where exactly would I sign something agreeing to give up my eligibility to participate in a class action suit? Are they trying to argue that linking the hardware to your account carries over the restriction to any hardware used?

Exactly. Win customers over by providing a better experience that makes people want to use your platform over a competitor, not because they're forced to

That's not a money reason or a store related reason. That's really on the developer. Mac is a different architecture. Often times Mac versions require extra development.

Linux is gaining more ground not because of a store or the developers themselves, but because Proton makes the windows versions of games run on Linux.

My argument was about exclusivity deals, not technical compatibility.

Yes, I do realize the money goes to the same place. My argument is not that Epic should go bankrupt. My argument is that I don't want to encourage or support the Epic Store.

"vote with your wallet" - my vote says I approve of unreal but disapprove of epic store.
