How the hell can software be "comfy"? Move on with your life, your childhood is over.

It would help if more companies bothered to use native GUI toolkits rather than some bullshit like Electron which doesn't fit anywhere.
>inb4 portability
It's possible to write a wrapper that reuses common toolkit widgets. See libui-ng or hiro (from the ares emulator) for examples.

I agree with this, also consider the shit concept that minimalism is, I think all of this comes from a perspective view, minimalism is the equivalent to brutalism, it makes you wish for something else.

Games were made for nerds by nerds.
Now nerds download Steam and don't even make their own games. If you truly want these times back, be the change you want to see in the industry. Stop using Steam. Start making your own games. Only you can bring it back, if you have the balls to do it.

Disc based distribution, removal of all DRM and launcher programs like Steam, remove all online requirements that aren't absolutely necessary, remove all frameworks like Java and Electron, make file sizes as small as possible.

I'll just split the difference and use GOG an Itch more too. Organic competition is always good.

Itch is based. I wish more big indie devs would use it.
