YOU GUYS ARE SPINELESS FUCKING COWARDS

Hello!  we'd like to inform you that throwing every queer and nonwhite person under the bus is not going to do you favors.  Other people have already put it more eloquently than I can, so all of my energy is going to be spent telling you to fuck off.  you lost our support with this one.  really, heavily disappointed in all of you.

Are you talking about the shadow ban of NSFW games? Because if you're talking about that, then I agree with you even though I'm not queer and I'm white (I don't seriously think that matters), I also don't like that a platform for indie developers forbids thinking and making games the way people want, because I think that's the point of indie games, for people to make games the way they want to see them, and not to cut or throw out their thoughts just because of the new policy of the platform (of course, the culprits here are MasterCard and Visa, but the platform, in my opinion, is also at least a third of the blame, if not half of it), in the end I want to add that itch.io is no longer an indie platform, that's the problem, because when big money is involved, what made this company the way we liked it fades into the background (of course, not always the case).

That's why we need a new platform for indie games, because I'm not sure itch.io will change its mind.

yeah, I am.  I am white myself, but i do understand that this affects non-white sex workers quite a bit.  I've calmed down a little since making this, but I do believe my point still stands.  I think I'm going to make a website on neocities or something, I don't know how much longer I can deal with this.

Oh, yeah. Itch.io is going the way of Tumbler. It will be all but forgotten in under under a year.
