Fun story, I left my unity game running a test in editor over night, accidentally. When I came back in the morning, my harddrive was full. The reason? Unity logging the same telemetry error over and over because it was not allowed to phone home.
Is that really what people are afraid of? Why would they do that? They want developers to put ads in their games certainly, but I don't think they want to alienate the devs with ads in the tool. That seems silly
My initial reaction was nah, but on second thought, I'm not so sure. Most indie devs will produce nothing and generate no revenue / buy no seats. But they may purchase stuff on the unity asset store. I could see ads finding their way into the editor that way.
Not that this has anything to do with applovin though
Good point, I hadn’t thought about it from that angle. I could actually see that rationale, don’t agree with it but could see how greed could take them there.
