    News flash running the servers isn’t free.

    Yes they are tracking us. That’s how they pay to keep the servers running.

    If your not paying you are the product.

        Mods for one game vs basically every game

        I could probably host the entirety of the mods on that site on my homelab, Nexus is exponentially larger and more complex

        Cool hope they do a decent job moderating the servers they run and limiting malware exposure. I also hope they’ve taken steps to prevent themselves being used as a host for malicious entities to distribute malware to third parties
