• In it they note SteamDB might finally gain a proper API for people to use, and there’s no plans to put adverts on it.

    Cool. 😃

    But, they will be looking to commercialise it somehow - as they said, “SteamDB needs to make money”.

    Oh… 🫩 Aaaaaaaand it’s fucked.

      Yes it’s fucked because running servers costs a lot of money and SteamDB runs on donations. So I hope you did donate at some point when you used their services and disapprove of this development.

        Being financial able to contribute is required to validate an opinion. Just like only the wealthy should vote.

      Does my life time membership to nexus mods mean I also get life time membership to steam DB now? If not then fuck off nexus mods you sack of dog shit. I already regret how shitty you turned your site into don’t do it twice.

      If it does then my point still stands but I will also take advantage of this.
