    This issue hasn’t affected me yet. But I worry that it could affect us if these payment processors keep escalating. Like sure, right now, it’s NSFW. But then it’ll be anything they want. LGBT+ content? Too much violence? Critical of religion? They’ll just keep going

        Yep. Because they can’t do it with the law, they’re doing it with payment processing. Maybe crypto will be the answer, gods help us.
