I've only met one type of people who (seem to) really like AI. And they all sell AI stuff.. Coincidence? I don't think so!

There are few who are interested in AI, but their illusions were quickly shattered.

Everyone else either doesn't want or even hate AI.

Maybe I just know the wrong people? No!

Lollipop 🤤

Liars lie; that is their sole purpose in life; it is the only thing they know how to do. That is not an excuse, but a simple fact. And their "believers" are happy to be lied to. They pray for lies.

I like this kind of "noise." <3 ^^

6/5 PS I've read a bit more about all of this and would like to add that criticizing itch may be going to the wrong place. I hope itch will clear up some outstanding aspects of their TOS changes in the next days. However, a shoutout to "Collective Shout" as a source for all this shouldn't be wrong.

5/5 ...like an invoice number or whatever information you also have on itch to verify the purchase. It's like getting a voucher for an uncensored version with every censored book.

I hope everyone gets what I'm trying to say.

4/5 Although I don't know and can't say if this would be a possible way around the censorship.... but maybe censor the books to sell them on a platform like itch, but allow any customer to get the uncensored version by asking for it via email (or another way) and providing some information...

3/5 So write something like “This part of the story is censored because of the payment processors (like Paypal, Visa, Mastercard) and because of the spineless behavior of itch and the related changes to their TOS”. Maybe add links to more information on this topic.

2/5 Youtube wrote "Unfortunately, this video is not available in Germany because it may contain music for which GEMA has not granted the necessary music rights. - We're sorry about that" (GEMA: Society for musical performing and mechanical reproduction rights).

1/5 Just thoughts I would like to share:

If you want to censor your content, I suggest doing it the way Youtube did in Germany for years.
