One of these three games has been strongly implied to be involved in child grooming this year. Fun.

Only one of them plausibly hasn't, and that's because it's not got a multiplayer mode

I'm actually talking about the behavior of the developers and that whole debacle where Roblox started banning people working with law enforcement officials to catch pedophiles on the platform, then turned around and accused them of basically aiding pedophiles, and THEN put out a shady interview trying to explain their position in a way that ultimately made them look sympathetic with pedophiles.

Although Roblox is very far from my taste in games, I wanted to join my kids in a few multiplayer games, and was very happy to find out Sober exists. It worked like a charm.

Yea that's pretty much my extent of Roblox myself, playing with the kids.

It's certainly something, some of the "experiences" are plain cash grabs (which I talk to them about) but I find quite a few to be genuinely fun, even if they're absolute chaos sometimes lmfao

Man I tried.... but for a former gamer it's really bad :D anyway the kids seem to love it when I join.

Without knowing the previous year's number this doesn't contain information about growth

Ok but its a client u only have to download once so even 2 downloads would be growth

if you play Roblox (I do sometimes for nostalgia or to mess with some free nonsense with friends) sober is really good. it complains about Wayland but works perfectly.

Linux gaming is growing! The Roblox client Sober was downloaded 1.3 million times this year. | Spyke
