  • I do not think this is a place for consumer action. It is good the devs are running their awareness campaign for gamers. If a dev releases a game made in Unity in 2025 it is because they have made the decision that it is the best course of action for their business. Maybe they have a B2P or subscription model that makes the runtime cost more sustainable over throwing out N years for development effort.

    At the end of the day Unity is a business to business product. The developers are the customer, not the players. If Unity’s new pricing and business practices don’t make sense to developers then developers will no longer use it and Unity will fail without player intervention.

    I don’t think your goal is to further hurt the devs. Boycotting games made with Unity is throwing the baby out with the bath water.








  • I couldn’t live without one these days. I personally use Bitwarden. I have tried most of the other manager suggested in this thread. They each their own benefits. I would recommend one of the hosted services for most people (1password, Bitwarden, not LastPass). I came to prefer Bitwarden for their combination of features and openness. I have self hosted it in the past, but these days just use their hosted service.

    There are a lot of side benefits to using one besides just remembering your usernames and passwords for you too.

    • It lets you use catch-all emails if you have your own email domain
      • allows you to give services their own address to track abuse
      • makes you more resistant to someone taking your leaked credentials from one site and using it for another
      • easier spam filtering
    • Most password managers support random password generation
    • Saving things that aren’t logins
      • Family member’s SSNs and DL numbers
      • Credit cards
      • Wifi passwords
      • Gate codes
    • Sharing always up to date passwords and other secrets with people (for hosted options)
    • 2FA is easier
