Moving to another site won't solve the issue, but it will provide a deterrent to other companies doing the same.

And it will protect devs and customers from the risks involved with working with such an unreliable platform which instates blanket bans (and which removes much more than the bans, even) with no prior warning and even with the delisting of purchased titles.

End of the day, if capitalism is the argument for why itch.io gave up without a fight, it's also the reason I can comfortably say- tough luck, I'm taking my business elsewhere (permanently).

Reliability (and of course, having an actual product) is king, and in this case itch.io has demonstrated it is not a reliable platform - not for its devs, not for its consumers- and it has delisted games from peoples libraries, to boot. Why would anyone ever use a service after such a scandal?

And such a "merciless" capitalistic response is natural, as well. Why should customers or devs impacted feel any loyalty or solidarity towards the site which screwed them over in a big way?

Admittedly I don't get it, but the chickens are cute!
