Every time I see Moriarty pull the lever, I hear Fran Drescher yell "Niles, cut it out already!"

I mean, if it's consensual and there's no power imbalance it's nobody's business

Yeah, they offer workers some union-like protections, but they wildly vary from employer to employer as to how much power they wield.
A proper union will include things like wage negotiations (group bargaining), worker complaints, worker safety, legal representation, and the ability to strike.

Are you talking about the workers' council? That's not a union.

I think the reason the big 3 get more shit for is is because they did it in the past without the excuse of A.I. - mind you, exclusive titles and paid online services were the main game for them and many console manufacturers sold their consoles at a loss. I guess that the margins on games are too slim now for the gaming system vendors to continue with that model?

I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but the world is a sphere, Lemmy is a global network of instances, and without location context this comment makes no sense.

I don't mind "Web apps" that let you install an icon on your phone that basically open up a frameless browser window. Seerr (nee Overseerr) does that and it's a great experience. 363kB used on my device.
For contrast, the Burger King app is also just a portal to their website, and it uses well over a hundred MB for the same kind of "this is the site" experience.
It doesn't make sense to me that an app that uses the system provided browser and has little more than a couple of bitmaps and something like an oAuth token needs that kind of space.

private tracker accounts cost money

No, those are 'semi private' the ones you can buy into aren't really 'private trackers'.
The ones that are near impossible to get into without knowing someone are the ones that are actually private.
