The name was used casually before, but he officially changed it in 2021
I suppose it’s to stop a critical mass of promoters commenting “and my axe” among themselves? I agree though it doesn’t really feel right to encourage more low effort posts
I’m not too familiar with the details but there is this excerpt from a blog post by Wolfire Games from 2021 where they say this wasn’t the case. Haven’t checked it’s validity or if it’s relevant information to this case, but it is something
When new video game stores were opening that charged much lower commissions than Valve, I decided that I would provide my game “Overgrowth” at a lower price to take advantage of the lower commission rates. I intended to write a blog post about the results.
But when I asked Valve about this plan, they replied that they would remove Overgrowth from Steam if I allowed it to be sold at a lower price anywhere, even from my own website without Steam keys and without Steam’s DRM.

Happened all the time over on r/androiddev. Small company brings on the wrong person/uses the wrong SDK/wrongfully fails an review and their account is then banned via “association”, which then propagates down to countless other employees.

Or this other occasion where viewers of one of the most popular YouTubers in the world were banned for typing in chat
I switched to (Doom)-Emacs from a ~7yr old homegrown Vim config last week and honestly the configuration is less bad than it seems. If you’re mainly writing markdown you’ll probably get 99% of the way there by just enabling the dedicated module
