CEOs changed the game completely after one of them played spiderman 2.
warning: the story might change the way you think how some developers are treated across the world.

I don't know if the game is the best example of busineses making top-down design decisions, since that game was an obvious scam from the start.

I never saw that, that's legitimately funny. I'd love to be in the room when that feature was designed, and the reaction of the developer it was handed too.

Not sure why? Just because you don't use or understand a feature, it does not mean nobody else wants it? Or do you have more insight into that?

[-] lemmesay@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 10 months ago

I don't. but adding a "feature"(I call it bloat) that doesn't even work properly instead of, say, making search better might be a more sensible thing.
but as a commentor suspects, they might've added this because of black history month
