The ".win" community is expanding to be a reddit replacement: communities.win
And there's new sub communities to check out.
communities.win/c/gaming seems especially relevant to us.
If we want a reddit replacement to take off we're gonna need to participate and make it into what we wish reddit was.
edit:
c/gaming
Does linking like this work?
Oh cool, it does!

Crap, I just noticed i mispelled the address in the title.
It should be "communities.win".
The issue with Epic is that their defenders are always on the other extreme of Steam simps, where they apologize for everything or don't acknowledge the criticisms of the company / technology.
As long as you contextualize any topic here, IMO you can post basically anything (excluding sexual fetishes and the like). You might be downvoted on any WIN site for criticizing the platform or Trump, but that's not too surprising.
As for boycotting, IMO you should do it selectively or based on personal principles. You don't have to boycott everything and with your example, why shoot yourself in the foot? I'd just suggest buying retail for cheap if possible.
It's just a little rich to see so many considering buying or have purchased PS5 when you know at least a few of them were livid about the "mostly peaceful protests", where Sony was especially egregious in their attitude.
Personally, I don't like The Donaldisms terms (pedes, frens) nor their sidebar rules, but I'm monitoring it for seldom conversation. Far too vanilla for me overall.
