The task is impossible.  With the amount of users, the amount of games being put out, with AI content generation speeding all of that up, they're essentially trying to swallow the ocean here.  Certainly, 25 or so people couldn't do it.  This forces Itch into an untenable situation where they probably can't afford to hire enough people to do this manually.  They could do it through automatic filtering of some kind, maybe, but then they need to codify the standards because automated systems can't run on vibes.

Automatic filtering would be bad. Like, worst possible outcome bad.
