I'm not accusing hddherman of bad behaviour, but seems like this could be a decent way to advertise/astroturf without raising suspicion. Bring up flaw that, while bad, is irrelevant to most of the target market, and then splatter links over Reddit and HN. The first thing I did after clicking reading the linked page was to go to their homepage and see what the hell Rainway even was. I don't need the service but it seems potentially useful to many.

Exactly this. This is an ad, nothing more. “Company uses discord for support system” is uninteresting.

  An ad that is essentially "company does illegal stuff, buy there"?

  What alternative do you propose for situations where Company A does some shady stuff? Are all the posts about Google/Facebook/Amazon doing illegal things also ads?

> see what the hell Rainway even was What's up with all those game streaming services that seem to be popping up everywhere? Was I just not paying attention or is it the new hype of the year?

  Streaming games and watching game streams is what the kids do these days.
