Because it reads more like advertisement of a paid product than news.
Comment on Junk Store 2.0 has released
PerfectDark@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I know its silly of me to care about down votes, this is the internet after all, and having thin skin on the internet is just crazy.
But the idea that you’re downvoting me for sharing news just strikes me as…insane. Do you not want me to share news on Lemmy? Do you think I’m the developer? If so did you not read this intro to the piece at all?
Again. Just stupid to care about being down voted, but if you’re one of those who have been, I’d love you to just speak up and explain why!

Yep.
What is Junk Store 2.0?
Junk Store 2.0 is a fully extensible game launcher designed to help you easily install and manage games from platforms like Epic, GOG, Amazon, and more — all without the hassle of complex workarounds. It’s faster, more stable, and includes a ton of new features to enhance your experience on the Steam Deck.
So much advertisement it reeks of hypocrisy.

What should be your logic to upvote or downvote? Mostly because you’re the one asking on the first place.

You are not being downvoted
The content is. If it is downvoted it will be buried, less people will see it, and they’ll find less subscribers thus earn less money

I don’t like subscription based software, and a subscription based game launcher is even more ridiculous.
With the subscription aspect in mind, this reads to me like an advertisement rather than news.

I think some people use downvotes as a disagree button. They don’t like the idea of paying a sub for a launcher (I too find it stupid but that’s just my opinion) and use the downvote to let the world know instead of commenting or simply ignoring the post.
Don’t take it personally, and please don’t let the downvotes discourage you! Your posts are a breeze of fresh air content in a place where most content is just links to news sites.

One of them here.
I like = Up

Thank you for sharing. I gave it an upvote because I do care about posts and it was informative.
I disagree with the product though and wouldn't get it because I don't want another subscription. I guess people are down voting because they disagree with the Junk Store 2.0 itself.
Anyhow. Please continue to post. It's important for growing these communities and try not to let the downvotes discourage you.

Because this is an ad?
