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.

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.

    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...

    fair enough

    Paypal is bad, but I've not heard of it blocking accounts just for people being queer. That seems like it would lose them a lot of customers—not because of backlash, but because a lot of people are queer.
