Morrowind is most obvious choice.

However if you want something new, eurojank games tend to scratch same itch to me if you can tolerate unpolished game mechanics until you get used to it. Two Worlds 2 and Elex 1 is great games to start with.

As a open source dev hard disagree. That is only true if you have small engaged passionate community. As soon as projects get larger that side disappears.

There is no use for having a good first party app when you can just kill all competition. Reddit does not need to care anything other than making money through their apps.

Even Windows 98 has that setting

It doesn't consume a lot of CPU or ram on idle so pretty much

Well remember what happen when IRS went after the Microsoft for stashing tax payer money away. They lobbied US government to reduce resources of IRS so they don't have power to keep pursuing the matter anymore.

Contrary to popular belief US is not land of the free, it is land of the corporate ownership. Getting angry at Microsoft is like getting angry at the King. What are you gonna do about it, it is the KING.

I can't see this regularly bullshit nothing more than illusion to fool Public opinion and not a single cent more. If FTC actually be a hassle, they will be reminded who their owners are.

While being illegal in theory, China still has 9-9-6 in most of the workforce. That means parents work from 9 am to 9pm 6 times a week. Biggest employer of China such as Foxconn make people sleep at factory floor from Monday to Saturday.

This creates an environment where children basically grow with playing games. Most people in China does not own gaming computers or consoles. People play P2W mobile games with real gambling and gacha mechanics. Gambling addiction is insanely big problem so Chinese government is trying to bud the problem out of it is roots. Henceforth children gets limited screen time.

I think issue is Pokémon games are still made primarily for children with age between 6 to 12. There are a lot of older people who grow up with it and some of them righteous feel like they are left behind.
