Itch.io just banned lgbt content at the reauest of payment providers. It is now, short of finding them and handing them food, impossible to pay the last group of artists i was giving money to, because the mechanisms of payment have decided they cannot be paid.
But I still want the stuff they’ve made, their back catalogues, etc.
Seems like you know the creators and want to pay them, you can just ask them directly, doesn’t seem like its about piracy
Nope. Hypothetical thing ive done a few times in the past.
And im saying i don’t know all the people whose stuff i still wanted.
The group/category being ‘tiny mostly queer indies on itch’.
Sorry not sure I understand. Are you saying you don’t know who the authors are? You could look up the name of the game and find usernames and give them a message. I imagine most of them are on social media somewhere, or have email addresses, etc.
Some of em, but also im gonna want new stuff.
Then if they don’t live near me, how do i support them?
Remember the problem here is the money system.
You can still send them money even if they can’t sell their games. e.g. they could have a ko-fi or paypal or something. As for finding new stuff, I suppose it’d have to be word of mouth unfortunately.
Dude paypal has been christofascist from day 1. How do i get money to their ko-fi?
And? That doesn’t mean you can’t send them money on it.
If they have a ko-fi then just use the web ui to donate…
Well i dont use it, and it will block or black-list them soon enough.
I misunderstood the question then, carry on.
