Itch.io is a website for users to host, sell and download indie games.
Here you can share games, make reviews, upload updates of your games or even share them!
Just wondered if there is a working way to exclude some Genres Form a search. New & Popular is always full of Horror and/or NSFW-Games. But i would like to filter these Genres out, because i am tired of seeing only them.
I dont want to search for exact one genre or tag, because i would like to See unique Games, i wouldnt even thought of. I like creative and odd Games. Like that Project where you are in a Museum full of Wikipedia Articles! ( https://mayeclair.itch.io/museum-of-all-things )

I just bought this bundle because of Tunic (it's an amazing game, all the praises are so deserved)
Do you have other games to recommend? I loved Hidden Folks and Minit that I found in older bundles, truly two gems in my opinion.
One day I checked some Vivaldi updates, and took a chance.
Itchio isn't officially supporting mobile for theme editing, but I used it anyway. In Vivaldi, there's an option to scale images seperately to 90% in the Accessibility menu.
It works for Android, but I wonder if anyone got the Theme Editor button displayed on iOS or on the Pinephone.
I love the cool DIY vibes on itch, but it's troubling how much commercial closed-source tech you see on there. Also itch itself is not a free-software platform. They encourage gamedevs to share their games, but themselves don't share their software... just as hypocrit as evil Github!
My questions are:
is there a free-software itch-like platform? maybe even a federated one where you don't need a centralized server?
is there an itch-like platform dedicated to free-software games?
I remember there were a few projects like that YEARS AGO in the early days of Steam but i don't remember the names and i don't know how successful they were.
Anyway, are folks from this community interested in this?
