  Wait - are you really the real Blizzard?

  Why did you do this to us?

    I wish they had an official account on Lemmy because I’d like to ask them some questions:

    • why do giant slugs and porcupines keep bound prisoners?
    • why do mobs suddenly come out from underground? Just becasue it made sens with zergs, doesn’t mean it will make sens with everything

    Don’t let me start talking about movement because it’ll turn into a rant.

  This treats the symptom, not the illness.

    This is a vaccine that will make you immune to the illness.

      Most of my devices have all the relevant blocks and filters etc. my iPhone doesn’t and given I’m mostly in a few paid apps it hasn’t really been an issue in the past at all.

      I really just wanted to call attention to how sick of an issue this is for someone who might be trying to help themselves.

        Yes, it is a dick move. Companies don’t care about consumers, they care about sales and their brand. You could document this with some screenshots or a short video and send out an e-mail to a bunch of popular newspapers. If any of them pick up the subject, it could hurt those assholes.
