I don’t think anyone has the reputation of Fitgirl, but other than her, Dodi is definitely the most reliable name I know of. He also recently said he’s gonna do a soft retirement and not release as much stuff in the future, so, idk, doesn’t seem like the behavior of someone who might be building a botnet lol
If you’re open to piracy, it looks like Dodi has a repack of Syndicate (2012) up. That’s very good news if you’re on Linux; in my experience Fitgirl installers almost never work, but Dodi’s have never failed me.
Load up your launcher of choice (Lutris, Heroic, and Faugus are the three I’m familiar with), run the installer through that, and you should be set.
I wonder if Grok is also the justification they’ll start using for claiming that random fishing boats in the Pacific are actually drug runners
