Wow, I didn’t realize. In fact, you’re probably the only user who keeps track of creators’ profile creation date.
Looks like we posted our first jam game in Jan 2017 (although it was made 1 year after Global Game Jam 2016). But I certainly created my itch account before that in 2026 to start building my collection. Interestingly, the first game I bought was https://polclarissou.itch.io/orchids-to-dusk in June 2016! Brings back memories… I was really on itch specifically to play those niche indie experiences.
