Don't use ~~a~~ Microsoft ~~account with Windows~~

FFTFY.

Bethesda anything, Azure, Outlook, GitHub, Visual Studio, Office, Bing, XBox, LinkedIn, SharePoint (so disgusting this is a given), fuck it not even Skype (lmao what year is it?)

Still kinda hurts they own Bethesda now, but considering that company has only produced garbage since FO4 which only was kinda mid, I don't even mind skipping them.

Literally fix the anticheat problem and I’ll uninstall.

[–] realitaetsverlust@piefed.zip 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The anticheat problem already is fixed. It's called "don't play games that don't support your choices". These days, no game is worth being put through all that AI bullshit.

Not the case for me, definitely worth it for some games
