I'm probably switching to Amd too in a month. I haven't upgraded since 2016 either. I was planning to go from 6700k to 14700k. Now I'm considering a 9950X if the pricing and performance are good. Think they're due in a couple of weeks. I'll be staying with nvidia though. Just hope pairing NVIDIA with Amd cpus won't cause issues.

You have no choice, so no point worrying about it.

Not everyone is trying to write the next hit game. You sound up your own ass.

I can't see why the internet would reset us to the the bronze age. I think what they're saying is it's more likely to reset us to similar state to when the internet wasn't common-place, ie, the 80s.

I don't know why people are shocked by Apple anymore. We know exactly what to expect from them.

If you want to support a terrible company, then you can endure the terrible results.

What are we trying to achieve here? A u-turn on a terrible decision so that we can keep using Apples devices in complete ignorance for yet another decade or until their next disgusting move? How about we let them be terrible and go elsewhere?

No way I'm signing this, you've all made your bed now lie in it.

Personally I think a lot of people just don't understand how far, both feature and performance wise Godot is compared to Unity and Unreal Engine.

I refuse to read anything even remotely related to accessibility written by someone dumb enough to put white text on a yellow background.
