What's with all the Epic hate in the comments? They invest in open source software and take on legal challenges that nobody else is up to?
Where? Like, no. Maybe they somewhat support software they have in the chain of usage like any other company and that's it. Yes for taking the challenge, but like Spotify, complaining about roadblock of another company, does not make them good.
But not to say this should be the place to trash on Epic.

It's a shitty company who happen to be in the right side of one lawsuit at the moment

Lol scrolling the front page of that is just like a bunch of whataboutism and hypothetical stretches about how things might be and people hating on fortnite for being fortnite. I'm open to real reasons but I'm not reading more than a dozen fluff nonsense opinions to get to them.
