One reason to not wait until the last minute.

Exactly. It's not like this wasn't entirely unexpected. A number of indy devs pushed their games release from today to later this month or next month just to avoid getting lost in the Silksong hype.

Well...actually...they are losing money.

Thanks to Silksong we can't buy our games today. Marvelous.

Same issue here. Tried to buy some VR games, but the checkout getting error messages. Is this issue for everyone else?

are there 3rd grade students at the system admin level?

How can you treat users so disrespectfully on a regular basis?

Say you dont understand server traffic without saying it.

Say you dont understand server traffic without saying it.

1. Capacity allocation
2. Blockchain (as an example)
3. distributing traffic to all multidirectional servers from more than one wire
= profit

Easy to say hard to do, especially if your redistributer crashes from the sheer volume.. hey guess how ddos attacks work..

So... do you think doing that list of things provides infinite capacity and no amount of traffic could ever put your dream configuration under extreme load?

Or do you think if you were paying for it, you would spend millions to handle infinite capacity for the rare instances where traffic is above normal?

And frankly, what do you think Valve is doing? You think they run Steam off one ancient server or something? How do you think a system with tens of millions of users functions at all?

right.

literally daily mistakes, fragility, speak about this, something is constantly not working, Oops! 🤡

systems on the blockchain cannot afford mistakes, this is a perfect technology, unfortunately, which schoolchildren and low-level techies cannot learn how to use.
