I keep seeing people trying to play down the payment processor situation, saying it's only the extreme NSFW accounts getting sacked.
Well. One of the cutest SFW furry artist got banned from PayPal. What more proof do y'all need that we need to keep fighting the good fight?
Also go support Nakufin.

I'm devastated, if I don't find an alternative that works with argentinians I'm contemplating the worst, I can't do regular jobs, art was my job for around 15 years
I don't do nsfw even when people insist me to
my life was already crumbling and now I don't know what to do

Part of the 30% cut that Valve takes is the implicit agreement that they'll protect developers from the hassle of dealing with individual payment providers, and if they're not actually willing to go to bat for us, why are we paying them so much again
Saw someone cite the Collective Shout thing and payment processors in regards to the Horse situation and say "Valve can't fight them by itself", and I think we maybe shouldn't be defending multi-billion dollar companies for arbitrary takedowns of artistic works and acting like they're the little guy

I worked on HORSES as an outside consultant. Santa Ragione took all of my concerns and suggestions VERY seriously and did their best to react to them. I believe 100% that had Valve given them concrete instructions, they would have reacted immediately.

And another dropped today.
I thought RPG releases were slowing down in the last few weeks of this year, but I'd apparently forgotten one. The Use Of Life just fully launched after nearly four years in early access.
A loosely game-book inspired adventure, seemingly inspired by (currently-being-remade) RPG Maker gem Ruina.

I've put together a list of furry games that I highly recommend, featuring anthros and developed by members of our community, game titles and credits in the alt text cause otherwise I'd go over character limit.
