how is this acknowledging piracy ?
To me, the meme acknowledges that GOG installers are shared in groups, which is piracy since the other people didn't pay for it. (That doesn't mean it's bad btw.)
My friend, I regret to inform you that you are misunderstanding the meme
Yeah that seems like a bit of a stretch. That meme read to me like "Oh, you're having problems with the DRM? I don't have that problem," not "Hey guys, here's the GOG installer for X game."
Otherwise, why would the other people in the group chat not like the vibe?
I hate it when people share software with me. Really brings down the whole group chat.
