NSFW ban is upsetting

I know my input isn't asked for but I just want to put it somewhere.

You might as well remove the adult or NSFW tag then.... 34 games left of hundreds is an absurd ratio and most of the remaining games are shooters. Im worried about all the promising game devs out there that have just lost one of the safest and main ways of reaching to new people. There arent a lot of well known safe sites to publish nsfw themed games. Sure it can be a niche category but a lot of devs can use it as a way it get into game dev and other languages, and there is a huge market for it. 

Im just disappointed is all, ill miss scrolling through and finding a jem that had real pashion and quality.

To all the devs affected by this, I wish you luck. 

p.s. please let know what sites u all move onto next!

(!!)Most importantly(!!), those in the USA should consider contacting their Congressmen (phone or email) and tell them you want to support these bills:

https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/senate-bill/401

https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/987

I would urge them to support it, and even urge them to strengthen the wording of it to put more restrictions on credit card companies, not just banks. ( How to find your congressman[www.congress.gov] )

Then, I think those in the USA should contact the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and file a complaint. Doing this next is good, as its the most consumer focused:

https://www.consumerfinance.gov/complaint/

Phone: 1-855-411-2372

Mail: Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, 1700 G Street NW, Washington, DC 20552

Following that, submit a detailed complaint detailing the issues to the DOJ’s Antitrust Division or FTC:

Department of Justice – Antitrust Division

You can use an AI to help you draft letters easily (Microsoft Copilot requires no sign-in). I've put physical addresses too because although it represents a big commitment of effort, few things get their message through better than a written letter.

This is not an end-all-be-all list, but I think its a pretty good starting point. I understand a lot of this represents an uncomfy amount of effort, but really, wouldn't it be an insane spectacle if Visa or MasterCard literally got broken up all because they messed with some erogames on Steam? Imagine that going down in history.
