Not back to normal, no. Payment processors are still being little bitches, and so for example, Conway and other NSFW games currently can't accept donations if we want to be visible on the site.
Which in turns also means less income for itch itself, which is not great as they are the ones paying for the hosting of our files. So I do want them to have their share of the donations that came in.
Itch.io is also the one that bent over and fully allowed the payment processors to ruin everything instead of pushing back.
They are not blameless in this and should have gone on to tell the Itch userbase to call the Visa and Mastercard HQ, but they didn't. They just sat back and de-listed NSFW games without any kind of warning beforehand because they don't have even the smallest hint of a spine. (Same idea goes for Steam as well - all of these game platforms should be actively fighting against the scum trying to get anything and everything banned for no good reason, but here we are. They just remained silent while hardworking people have their livelihoods threatened because they didn't make content "for all ages".)
Yet they still fucked over people and in this thread the dev said VERBATIM, "Conway and other NSFW games currently can't accept donations if we want to be visible on the site."
You're defending an organization that wanted to take away your ability to enjoy certain media.
Itch caused the damage in the first place. They should've simply not allowed it to happen.
Please, continue to tell me how Itch.io is actually the good guy because they allowed things that were already on their platform previously. You're doing so well and clearly showing your doctoral-level reading comprehension.
Edit: Also it's kinda weird when people (specifically MarloweC) comment things months after the entire discussion has been had. You just really had to necropost, huh, buddy? Also weird to immediately block someone, almost as if you were more interested in winning an argument than the argument itself.
