It’s tough. It even touches on it in the article. On the one hand it’s not great in a vacuum that new, more invisible and accessible and socially acceptable nicotine products are out there (especially those more appealing to children). But on the other hand it’s actually good to have less harmful alternatives to vapes, pouches and (especially) cigarettes for the purposes of helping addicts quit.
Shortly after the Reddit API debacle three years ago and the ensuing little exodus of users from there to here some guy created an Advice Wanted post asking for dietary advice for a circumstance where he couldn’t poop for three days. He was using very vague language, he was refusing to specify exactly why he couldn’t poop, and he was refusing to specify exactly what he was doing for those three days. When pressed about it he said he would technically perhaps be able to poop if he really had to, but it would be much better for everyone involved if he didn’t and he would really like to avoid it.
Obviously replies kept flooding in, both befuddlement, genuine advice as well as rampant speculation about what kind of activity he was to be engaging in. It also took over the meme communities for a good while, and I think it was still the most upvoted post of all time here when he deleted it (and his account).

No-poop guy is a deep cut. It’s such a shame he deleted his account and the posts, truly deserved to remain the most upvoted post of all time.
Thank you for creating self-promotion content!
This was already happening to some extent during Steam NextFest I think, so unfortunately I think you’re right.
At some point maybe Fluxer will be ready.
Welp, that’s an instant wishlist. Thankfully it’s only a reveal trailer and not a release trailer, because my backlog could use some attention first.
God, there are just too many games.
