Let him be, He's just a loud mouth (not a critic) , we must see the good in people, not bad. That's why he's still my friend.
It is just wierd. You do not even get any notifications about me, do you? So what is the point of following a player anyways? Is there a feature on itch that I am missing? I follow lots of devs, and sure am not getting any info about them. Only what they publish.
And, well, I like to argue. If you make a statement I disagree with, I might join the conversation to have a dialogue. This is a forum after all, and not a blog.
In your case, I seem to remember that you would support censorship. A thing I do not like. So if you proclaim your want for a thing like that, I like to point out the problems with that. Actually that fits well with the payment processors in this topic. While paypal is not available everywhere, where they are available, they are arbitrarily restricting money transfers. They try to impose their own morals. Imagine a payment processor gets adopted by itch that has other morals and bans payments for stuff you currently could do with pp. If we were to adopt a Chinese based system for example, you can bet, that stuff that does not fit into the worldview of Chinese Gov would be blocked. Or whole countries get blocked for political reasons.
Crypto was initally done precisly for that reason. To be independent from such things. But sadly it fails to do so by being prohibitivly costly and bad for the environment.
I disagree ;-)
People are not born with views and perspectives. They have to reason their views at some point. If their reasoning was wrong and they do not have a hard enough stick in their butt to accept their own mistakes, they can change it, if presented with better reasoning or new information. Sadly the internet is full of emotional appeal and other unsound reasoning. So many people rather indulge in sunken cost fallacy instead of accepting that they are wrong by their own standards. Prime example to be seen is flat earthers that accidentally prove the sphere and then try to rationalize how they are still right with a flat earth.
So, I do not say it is easy, just that it is possible.

I'm not supporting censorship (Never wanted to), but the reason behind it was kinda deep. (Ask if you want to know details)
