If itch.io was on our side, then they would give clear directions to everyone on the site how to fight this. I.e. which petitions to sign, who to contact, how to get our voices heard. Did we get that? No. We got a spineless response that they're "cleaning up shop" (i.e. throwing the baby out with the bathwater).
So is itch the good guys? Are they on our side? No. We got a single emoji announcement from them on discord. Well I've got one for you too, itch.
