You can get the browser version. But as per OP StatCounter says this

Statcounter is a web analytics service. Our tracking code is installed on more than 1.5 million sites globally.

I am assuming these are some extra js files or external scripts that the website will try to load, it won’t be part of the native website itself. Adblocker will completely prevent those file or websites from loading in the first place.

My initial point might not be quite right though, in the sense of Linux might be higher by pure numbers but not by percentage. The sheer number of people using Windows, even if a small portion use adblocker could outnumber the Linux users.

Also someone who uses Linux is more likely to use adblock and telemetry blocking features. The actual count is definitely slightly higher.

You definitely have a point… if US was the only country in the world and Uber did not provide a much better service than our local taxis. I mean yeah the local ones are cheaper but considering overall service, fuck no.

For me, one of the major advantages of Game Pass is publishers are absolutely refusing to put local regional pricing nowadays. Games at 60$+ cannot be bought by anyone with middle class salaries. Now with push to 70-80 usd+ for AAA, even AA games getting to 60$ it is impossible to buy in my country.

So why should I get a single game at those prices when I can get few hundred at similar pricing? It’s MSs problem that they are willing to put their games day 1 on GP not mine. I don’t care whether games are getting “devalued” or whatever, I’m simply getting what I paid for.

Also, people do tend to buy games standalone and I really can’t see that going away honestly. I can’t see games ever going subscription only or anything like that.

I know, I know lmfao. But that doesn’t mean I’m not going to leach the hell out of this until it goes away.

Forza Horizon is good for that experience

Game pass is awesome. Played a fuck ton of games at that price. Hope it stays forever, especially with that stacking model lol.

Yes, the government is going to get you by installing spyware in a game launcher that nobody uses. You won’t care a shit about or vet at code level any of the 200+ closed source games you will play in your life because they’re all fine in your fantasy land, but one game launcher is out to kidnap you.

Bro get a life, it’s not that serious. Evil app store lmao as if they’re out to murder you and your family

It’s being used to decipher and translate historic languages because of excellent pattern recognition
