you say as you go buy from another itch.io artist naively overlooking the fact its a platform policy not the creators.. I'm all about crypto it was my main income source from 2014-2018 but if you think the artist/creator vendetta towards NFTs in particular is irrational then you're sorely mistaken - artists are hugely exploited in the NFT paradigm, they've quite literally become the anti-thesis of their intended purpose as is even openly acknowledged by the creators of the NFT model themselves (Anil Dash and Kevin McCoy if you care to confirm for yourself). I don't even hate NFTs, I'm confident in the future they will achieve their initially intended purpose but as things stand now they are a blight to the digital art community to say the least.
