1 year agoThe only thing i find off about the idea is essentially the project is effectively using a different backlight (using a different backlight isnt a completely new idea, its for instance what powers ibuypowers project snowblind pc cases(lcd sidepanel) as it replaces the backlight with internal pc conponents that shine bright white.
If you wanted to fix the problem, would it not just make more sense to put time and effort designing a better backlight for lcds for this use case rather than to rely on a top shot ambient light to do it?
The whole point of the conversation is that the other platforms arent doing any work for the consumer.
To this day, epic doesnt even launch on linux officially, and requires a 3rd party launcher to even play its games. Epics first party games are on the list of games that dont work on linux.
There’s clearly one company who puts more effort onto the consumer front than the other. Epic doesnt even need to make a custom OS like valve does, it just needs to get their own launcher working, and their own games working, which they dont and refuse to.
To say that Epic is doing better for the consumer is disingenuous (however it does better for the developer though)
