A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

How does playing the game bring revenue? Ads?

Also, I would think that the business would be in a tougher situation if game popularity increased while tech workers weren't around to maintain it

Only if it increased by a very large margin like a DDoS attack
