If anyone's curious, Livejournal's "strikethrough" ban wave, which was the event that caused the creation of AO3, was generated by the exact same pressure that is currently causing the steam and itch bans.

A group of moral crusaders, in this case "Collective Shout", and in that old case "Warriors for Innocence" campaigned and put pressure on corporations to get rid of "obscene" content, which ended up deleting the works of many creators.

Thankfully in the case of livejournal and "warriors for innocence" we got the miracle of AO3 out of the ashes.

Hopefully something equally good will come from the bullshit steam and itch io adult conetnt purges.

the nsfw games have disappeared from itch io because the platform has delisted ALL nsfw games without warning, and deleted some without warning. This is all thanks to a punish to sanitize the internet, from a group called Collective Shout which ultimately wants to ban any "dangerous" content.

This group was behind the steam recent deletion of many nsfw games.

Their ultimate goal is to ban queer, LGBTQ+, violence, sexualization, etc. as they are a far right, anti abortion, Christian extremist group.
