Xbox since 3.03 and leaving for PC

Just a quick relay of my experience in the last 24 hrs. I've played poe on xbox since 3.03 with countless hours, multiple demigods etc. I've decided to play on pc and purchase a new pc key despite buying the Faridun pack on xbox. (Why? Loot filter for pc but not console is just one thing that confirms console is a waste of time playing trade right now. Frames series X, life ES unviewable when an item drops on the ground next to you, far too much to list here, usual story. I know its EA. I just wish to play a fair version of the game.) So I bought on Steam, whatever. I of course went to then link my Steam to my poe account. I then see I have been granted a key on dec4 for my 'lifetime support' -- after I had already purchased the game for 145 and again at 45 aussie dollars (roughly). Funny thing is my Steam key I purchased didn't appear. I will try to perhaps use the free key I have belatedly found. It's probably bound to Xbox though which I'm trying to leave mainly because it is mentally and physically fatiguing looking for loot in Tier 16+ right now. Maybe the key will work, maybe it wont. I'm completely terrified that someday I have to TRY get my mtx (that met the threshold to be granted an EA key) to work on both pc and xbox. Especially so, as I don't want to merge and lose access to my xbox account for a year/forever/timeline etc. Also, it feels bad to find a thankyou key for my lifetime support, that wont work on pc, while I'm trying to change to pc for a loot filter which now means I cant use the mtx I was just thanked for. Just thought I'd share my experience.

Never sink is launching his filters next week and you can bet GGG will add them for us on all platforms almost immediately, they’ve been beta until now and although it would have been nice to be use them I can see why GGG decided to wait
