I’m sorry if you think financial accountability and the ability to trade/sell items outside of a walled-garden don’t mean anything. And, I don’t know if you missed it but the fact that there could be interoperability in games answers your question. I know, it’s not a thing now, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be. The internet wasn’t a thing in the early 90’s and no one could have imagined what utility it would have brought 20-years down the line, but here we are. Let me put it to you like this, regardless of how you feel about it, does it negatively affect you to have more options? Why are you on Lemmy when there’s Reddit and Facebook? The tech doesn’t negatively affect you, and regardless if you think it has any utility or it’s dumb, that doesn’t mean others share your opinion. Even if those people are the minority, does it mean we should tell them they can’t do something just because we don’t like it or can’t see the benefit in it? Literally, of all places I would have assumed Lemmy users would have been more open-minded and tolerant of things. lol… Have a good day.
