The “first official Unity user group in the world” has announced that it is dissolving after 13 years because “the trust we used to have in the company has been completely eroded.” The move comes as many developers are saying they will continue to stay away from the company’s products even after last week’s partial rollback of some of the most controversial parts of its fee structure plans.
Why wiuld any companies trust them at this point…bail, let unity die and set a precedent to other engines to not fuck with the companies that make the products.
I just wish collectively humanity could do the same for these multi billionaire companies who will kill you to make 10 cents profit.
Companies need to learn that you can rollback policies, but you cannot rollback loss of goodwill.
Too bad modern capitalism is all about short-term profit over long-term anything. Who cares if you burn down the forest as long as you can walk away with the wood, right?
Companies need to learn that you can rollback policies, but you cannot rollback loss of goodwill.
So true!
Was there even any short-term gain this time? Next company to try this will probably give much less notice if legally allowed.
Positive to come from this might be companies going with their own internal engine if they have the resources to do so.
