Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Looks like itch.io has (hidden/removed/disabled payouts for? reports vary) its vast swath of NSFW-adjacent content which is not great
addendum: itch.io finally put out a statement https://itch.io/updates/update-on-nsfw-content

And a relevant petition from the ACLU:
https://action.aclu.org/petition/mastercard-sex-work-work-end-your-unjust-policy
Long-term, I'm expecting itch to dive in popularity from this - they've nuked much of the trust they've built up over the years with this.
Yeah sucks as we should be very clear it is visa/mastercard and the terf group influencing them who is to blame.
I recall seeing an article in the last week or so, regarding a right-wing associated group taking aim at these. will see if I can find that again
looks like the group is called Collective Shout https://itch.io/updates/update-on-nsfw-content
They forced the article to be taken down, there are archive links, when im back home (and if I dont forget) ill scroll past my reskeets to find the link.
