While I personally pitch in a few bucks every other purchase, I think they could more open and responsive on their preservation efforts.

    GOG is nice and all, but it's a for profit corporation at the end of the day, and I don't trust corporations not to sell their values down the river when it becomes lucrative for them to do so.

    I would far rather support the Internet Archive or something similar.

    I'd be much happier with GoG if they opensourced most of their stuff and supported stuff like Stop Killing Games.

    For now, I buy games from them and backup the installers, but until they become more open, especially towards Linux, and stop using shit like Discord, my support will just be in the form of shopping for games I want. Nothing more.

    Whatever you linked, it seems to be gone. I get a 404.
