A community for discussing all things PlayStation.
The instance rules apply here alongside two community specific rules.
Rule 1. Please keep all discussion relevant to PlayStation consoles, games and services.
Rule 2. Lemmy.zip allows NSFW content but I’d rather keep this a safe community for gamers of all ages so please don’t post adult content here.
That’s it for the rules.
Check out the Xbox community.
If you have any suggestions, comments or concerns please send me a direct message.

It’s not just the gaming industry. Every industry is in crisis right now- tech, journalism, you name it, they’re all firing people.
Some claim it’s due to over hiring during covid, but even industries that didn’t over hire are firing workers so while that is a part of the problem, it’s not the entire thing
For Deck Nine, their statement seems more personal than the ones by bigger companies. Make sense. But hopefully this decision was made after they’ve already cut salaries and bonus for their higher eps and tried to take other measures. Otherwise, the more “personal” message is just fluff.
