Yeah, that's a whole other level of why most gaming is not appealing to me.
I very much appreciate the FOSS version of Android. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Video games that are either free or are paid for only one time for the full version, are for single player only, and don't have random unlockable achievements (such as "Gain 10,000 Gold before the final boss") seem unlikely to have dark patterns. 🎮🧘♂️🤓
I haven't looked at that closely yet, so I'll take your word for it. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Well, that's at least in my own experience as someone who loves playing !INDEED. 🎮🤯😅

We can also say that Free and Open-Source games are unlikely to have (significant) dark patterns !INDEED. 🧘♂️😅

Yes, that's likely true, and FOSS is just better all around. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

In case a (main) dev of a FOSS game introduces (significant) dark patterns to it, then someone else can simply create a fork of the game without such dark patterns !INDEED. 😎

True, though forking often creates a fragmentation of development efforts, which strongly increases the probability that the new project will fail. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
