itch.io will soon let you filter games with genAI disclosures out of your search results on the site, after admitting it was previously "critically lacking" (www.rockpapershotgun.com)

I’m saying some things shouldn’t be left to the general public when it’s easily abused with no way to prove or deny it.

A review is different than a tag, even the game tags are inappropriate a lot of times. Souls games being labeled as “casual” for example. It’s already not working lol.

I get this feeling from reading some of the comments on the fediverse, too, but I still want them there

I can decide if the comments or the built consensus is reliable

Until there is recourse for the devs to remove the tags, or the users to remove fake/frivolous tags, allowing something like this will only lead to abuse and ruining the rest of the system along with it.

Hard pass, things are never useful with a paintbrush, there is always usecases. And when you can damage a devs credibility or job with some simple non-removable flag, that you can do as a joke or just fuck with them, with absolutely no moderation or punishment…. Thats a problem.
