This changes nothing. Your addendum doesn't address whether furry and queer visual novels that aren't pornographic in nature will be protected; it sounds like no at the moment until you prove otherwise.

They must feel more pressure this is the way

man itch isnt going to change anything if you pressure them. They CAN'T change anything. stop wasting useless effort getting mad at a company with 0 bargaining power and start calling the credit card companies. anything else is WORSE than useless

They DO control how they classify transactions for payment processors. If they apply an egregious "NFSW" label to something that is *not* NSFW because of category labels like "furry" then thats a huge problem right now.

Honestly with enough people arguing about how I feel on this issue is invalid I'm just kinda tired. If they truly think it won't come for content to they enjoy and manipulated for further control then I hope the leopards enjoy their meal.

I really don't understand why you are quick to defend a cooperation. They are almost never reliable allies and not worth defending for thier deplorable choices

WHAT choices. They weren't given one! Choices are not a thing that exists in this situation. You're acting like Itch is some massive corporation when it's not - its a very small business. As someone else said, Village market vs the Concept of Money.

I'm not really defending them, so much is pointing out that you are throwing a whole lot of anger and frustration at a company that has very little agency and likely mere double digit employee count. The stuff like what youre doing is actively drawing attention away from anything that actually helps

And I'm not saying they haven't handled it pretty poorly. But it's far more likely than not that almost all of their actions this point have been dictated privately by the people holding them at gunpoint

I would argue expressing dissatisfaction, and having both me and my partner complain to card companies is not worthless. Expressing outrage and a desire to not let this be acceptable is more productive in my opinion. Or would you rather it fizzle in embers.

Not starting fires under the feet of people who had no choice doesn't mean letting it fizzle into embers. Its not just not helpful, it's counterproductive. The worst crime itch is guilty of is consistently poor wording. And even that was likely partially dictated by those who are actually guilty.

Trust is a currency that is difficulty to earn. If you truly think people will trust them after this I would say it's a foolish notion. We have seen this story before and it's conclusion for itch is grim

I'm not really going to lose any Trust over the circumstances that they had essentially zero control over. I think any reasonable person can realize that if they could have done anything about this situation, they would have. Any reasonable person.

This "coorperation" has less than 7 people in total. It's weird to adress them like they are on parr with steam and have any chance of taking on visa and mastercard.

Because: 1. It wasn't their choice, it was this or stoping existing. And 2. The people ACTUALLY responsible are jussttttt to the left but people choose to be angry with itch io for some reason.
