@gamerbro83 @toAIC pretty sure someone just saw the opportunity to run a donations scam (mirror for a few months, maybe change the default theme while taking donations). Seems to be the thing to do for that crowd (cause drama, scam others based off the drama)
@Gladaed @popcar2 because every bloated 100gb game is a mix of a thousand different assets/executables/libraries where the developer thought “why optimize, 100MB is nothing”.
Often with little more than symbol stripping, removing unneeded files, and basic lz compression you can cut most game sizes in half, reduce load times, and free up terabytes of space on your system.
