The way Itch bowed down without putting up a fight, taking down every "adult" game without telling anyone first, and even going so far as to remove dozens of non-NSFW games that just had gay or trans people in them is overstepping the line. Itch bending the knee and saying they want to have a good relationship with credit card companies while screwing over creators is absolutely disgusting, and I'm angry at Itch for how they're handling this. They don't get a free pass for how horrifically they're handling this.

Again it has nothing to with itcho.io, as i said ABOVE they being PRESSURED into doing this because of the group called Collective Shout if you do research, you can see its not just effecting itcho.io its effecting even women who do onlyfans cause this Collective Shout is attacking visa discovery payplal ect
Honestly I'm not quite sure what people expected.
Personally, after a couple years ago regarding a conflict I had with another user I essentially had to step on a few toes just to get Leafo and staff to actually do something to deal with some at underage kid that went out of his way to troll and harass me personally after I called out he was under 13 at the time and point out the blocking feature wasn't even doing its function.
While not entirely relevant to the issue of NSFW games, the reason why I bring this up is because I honestly feel that Leafo doesn't have the best track record at resolving conflicts or upholding the ToS or rules in an effective manner. That's why I disappeared from Itch because it made me feel less comfortable to be a part of this community. And that relates to this specific controversy at large which I honestly would wish Leafo either had the decency to address that criticism or just hand the position he has over to someone who gives a shit.
