I believe you just underestimated these general instances of Lemmy. Also it doesn’t sound like you got the approval of the dev to post this. Doesn’t feel completely right, I dunno.
The developer is hosting the entire thing literally on Microsoft servers and Microsoft is currently acquiring Blizzard. “I don’t want the owner to know this, that’s why I rent a room in his office and have the doors wide open all the time and put up signs right there of what I’m doing.”
On one hand the developer is smart enough to write a game engine but then claims to not understand the very basics of open source software hosted on Github?
