Thanks, I'll use the delay feature. I accept that this has nothing to do with Godot.

I did find the TOS in question, as expected, it's very old (from 2019):

So people saying "who's to say they won't do this again," if four years isn't enough for you to catch up, I don't know what to tell you.

Edit: They have also brought the repo back, which was likely another unrelated change:

Jan '22 TOS does not have such a clause either (from archive.org):

At this point I'm pretty sure this is a dishonest attempt to dig up a 2020 change (if this clause even ever existed, which I've seen zero proof of) and correlate it to a 2023 announcement as if these things were done in tandem.

Downvote me all you want. I don't think Godot et al will survive with these scummy tactics.

I have never seen a Unity TOS that specified versions as seen in the screenshot of the link you shared. Where did they get that screenshot from? They need to share their source. For all we know this is a change from 2020 (latest version referred to in their screenshot).

In which case I think you will agree that is plenty of notice and most likely unrelated to be maliciously related to what's being announced now. They've even walked back the applicability to old versions as seen in GP.

It is refreshingly rare to see anyone who's made it rich tell their actual story rather than some revisionist hit piece.

Sadly, more often than not, someone else has to do it for them.

All you have to do is look at games made with Unity and compare with games made with Godot.

The proof, as they say, is in the pudding.

Unity never became successful in terms of profit. It isn’t FOSS but people treat it as such. I mean look at this:

Unity has bottom of the barrel users for the most part, it will be good for the company if these demanding yet unprofitable people go elsewhere.
