I am currently doing research around this topic for my University work and have created a google form for people to respond, but I need to make sure it is clean and respects everyone’s privacy.
You can request my signal group through direct messages if you would like to fill it out once it releases, I have other plans to have a talk as a (focus) group.
Fitgirl Repacks are performing a public service by not only repacking games better, but also distilling online content caches into offline game assets to ensure the game can still run years later.
Our pirates are the best custodians we have.
I would say MagiPacks might be an even better example primarily because they deal with older games. They also operate along the GOG logic of ensuring games run on modern operating systems but they do it by bundling in commonly used fan patches.
Good shout!
