it's unfortunate that they are going down this route. stratagems are one of the main appeals of the game, missing out on primary, secondary, and throwable weapons due to not having a warbond isn't nearly as disappointing IMO.

something i'd like to emphasise for people who think this is no big deal, because you can earn credits by playing: not everyone has the game amount of time to play as you might. those players don't have a choice of grind for it or pay for it, for them it's pay for it or lack the stratagem.

i think it's just humour, i assume it's referring to rust's lifetimes which is a feature (mostly) unique to rust

of course, if it works best for you, it's a good option! for example, im not self-hosting the lemmy instance that i use. however, there are numerous advantages to self-hosting, and if you'd like to learn more i would recommend the selfhosted community on lemmy. world

right, i read this (the linked README) already, and i was more-so asserting it rather than asking, but thank you for the response nonetheless.

what i was trying to say is, this software claims to be "Built to last forever" and yet is not built for self hosting, my remark was meant to highlight how these things are fundamentally incompatible. keep in mind it's not necessarily bad to use a service instead of self-hosting, but i wouldn't recommend it.

built to last forever & cannot be self hosted

hmm...

remember, it's important to keep people ignorant to better opportunities

not even a joke for me, i can't imagine being without F-Droid!

isn't this one proprietary?

you can use coffee to keep your phone awake (also available on f-droid)

hope this helps
