My queer horror game I worked on for 3 years was deindexed on itchio. This game has been pretty much my life and purpose these years and is based on many of my own challenges of figuring myself out later in life. To say this has gutted me is an understatement. justacarrot.itch.io/our-wonderland

Just a cautionary post, but please anyone thinking of setting up their own store/payments, using direct payments on itch, or using sites like KoFi that use direct payments, please just make sure you fully research everything you need to do for taxes and regulations... 😵‍💫

That is crazy that the games just need to CONTAIN the TOPIC to be banned; it's really about muzzling creators and preventing them from sharing their experience or their voice

Note that these extremely vague terms (which already prevent the discussion of sexual trauma), are NOT exhaustive. The TOS of payment processors themselves is even more broad/vaguely defined than this.

Screenshot of itch terms of service explaining that all cases have to be evaluated on a case by case basis and can be removed at any time, with your money frozen.

Supporting adult content in games is not "supporting rape culture and aligning yourself with men," although I am not a "man hater." If you believe any of these things, don't interact with me or I will block you and move on.

the one good thing about this shitass policy is that itch has directly given us a list of who to put pressure on to change. Paypal, stripe, payoneer, are the people to pressure now. Paypal: (USA) +1 (888)-221-1161 (UK) +44-0203-901-7000 Stripe: +1 (888) 963-8955 Payoneer: +1-888-290-3990

A list of the three payment processors itchio is citing in its censorship: payoneer, paypal, stripe.
