  1. It won't be as simple as "I'm setting up my little nsfw site", it's now "create a backend that can upload and store everyone's ID who visits your site and also make sure high-level security is in place to keep this sensitive info safe. Nobody can afford this.

    Games journalists really dropped the ball on itchio targeting yuri content, both SFW and NSFW

    The censorship of Toxic Yuri Game Jam hasn’t gotten any coverage from the games press

    'We're not safe here'
In the immediate days after, creators have found themselves at a loss of what to do.
Game developer krispycat, also known as ButterflyLatte, reports that her NSFW game demo, known as "The Seventh Bride," was deindexed, and is only shown when specifically searched for. It wasn't just this game, either.
"On a whim, I tried to search up my SFW games as well - Wendy, warm, Like Seafoam.
These games are fairly innocent and wholesome; 'warm' and 'Wendy' star children.
However, they don't appear in the suggestions either - I suspect it's because they're yuri games," she recounted, describing a genre of fiction which depicts romance between two female characters and has no inherent sexual elements.Some creators report that an entire game jam
- or collection of games developed in a short period to build community - was affected. The Toxic Yuri Game Jam, consisting of over 200 different games, saw significant hits, with over half of the games delisted and several being completely removed from the site. One user, known as Kastel, describes how a joke game they made was delisted squarely for having the tag "erotic."
They mention how this jam was filled with first time developers, and how the occurrence of these bans led to mass panic, watching a happy community turn into people feeling completely doomed.
"I've done a bunch of these game jams, so I'm giving them advice. And then I'm looking at all this and it's just... what do I even say? This is a pretty bad situation. I can't pretend that this is good. This isn't a wonderful thing we can all survive. It's pretty rough. I feel bad for everyone, especially because it's their first wave of censorship."
