Good God, what an arsehole.
Confusion? No, there was no confusion. You announced a policy that was terrible, but there was nothing confusing about it, it was just stupid. I wasn't at all confused you condescending twat, I fully understood what was being announced, as did everyone else, hence the backlash.
The article says it best:
We were confused about how much backlash there would be. We didn't think it would hurt our bottom line this much. Sorry for the confusion.
We thought you would love to throw money at us!
We apologise for you all being hysterical, and any Angst that may have caused.
Twats.
I don't think Unity has any chance of healing while that moron is still there. He poisonous.
Sorry you confused greed with annoyance.
You know a significant number of devs will be OK with Unity's statement and stick with them. Unity won't learn their lesson. They'll just be sneakier
Yeah ok. It doesn't affect me, I won't be using them, but what other people choose to do is their problem.
They were confused why we didn't love their amazing decision. Don't we care about the shareholders?
