    Better alternatives? That is highly subjective. Itch’s store-front experience sucks balls and they lack 98% of the features Steam has. I appreciate their existence and have bought games from them, but language like that will only serve to alienate people that know how much Itch lacks compared to Steam.






  • Judging by the downvotes, people really don’t like being told not to use our favourite DRM, huh… anyway, the reason people buy on Steam is for all the features and functions. Other than personal controller configs, most will not work with non-Steam games. Family Sharing, Remote Play, Workshop, premade controller configs, achievements, playtime, and any social features. Of course if you don’t use any of these, then supporting a smaller store is great!



  • I hate being without stuff I need, so I always carry around a backpack. I just always keep stuff in it so I don’t forget it. At the moment the core kit is:

    • At least 1L of water, usually 2L+.
    • Hand sanitiser for the inevitable moment the public washroom is out of soap.
    • Re-usable shopping bags in case I buy something.
    • An energy bar or two in case I have to stay at work late.
    • Nail clippers (having a broken nail at work sucks).
    • Band-aids.
    • A mask in case anywhere requires it, but this one has definitely seen less use over time.
    • Deodorant, because sometimes I forget to apply it before I leave in the morning…
    • Hand lotion for winter when my hands crack.
    • And finally, a charging cable for my phone.

    If it’s likely to rain and I’ll be outside longer than 15m I will add an umbrella to the mix.
