For the record, I don't understand why everyone is getting mad at me for suggesting they actually USE the service they are posting to. Isn't that how game sites are SUPPOSED to work?

Itch is a game platform, like Steam, GOG, or Epic Games. If you can't download apps directly through the service, then it is failing to do the main thing it is supposed to do. You realize you don't have to use the service at all, if it can't even do the thing it is supposed to be able to do. It's NOT normal to be so casual about jumping through hoops to use a service, when a critical component of the service doesn't work! It's not like there are no other sites offering the same service.

So, why is everyone pretending that it is ok to have to use incompatible workarounds to avoid issues with Itch, when for pretty much ANY other game site, they would be telling people to go to support to get the issues resolved so that they don't HAVE to use incompatible workarounds?

Seriously, for ANY other service, they would refuse to use the service AT ALL until the issues are resolved. But for some reason, people on Itch seem to get angry at the mere THOUGHT of getting support and getting issues resolved.

Welp, the Op in multiple posts on just as many pages suggests there will not be a tomorrow on itch.io. More doomsday peddlers here wringing their hands in despair. Is this post another troll attempt to excite the posters of this board?

Soooo, I just downloaded 2 games with no issues from itch.io linked to mega. I suppose my garbage collector would be more interesting than this Op for advice.

It's about the fact that the whole point of sites like itch is to be an accessible collection of apps. And if there are issues so severe that everyone it EXPECTED to use external, unsupported websites, just to ACCESS those apps, then the site has failed to meet the minimum expectation for a service of its kind.

Your thoughts. Your fears.

Nope. Those are your words. You keep claiming the issues are "so severe" yet nobody is having these issues. Suggest you leave this playground and invest in reality and go to work on fixing the non existant problems.

Or just quit trolling the internet for attention and go to work.

Itch regularly fails to download, giving a 403 error for no reason. Mega always works.

That wasn't from me. Nor was:

Dumbo, do you not know the app has resulted in bad downloads with errors? There are creators talking about this very thing.

So what are you actually trolling about?

You want people to quit using unsupported downloads and use itch.io when people are talking about problems with itch?

Your 'advice' here is about as good as any fake news. In old days, it was used for wrapping fish or garbage.

👎👎👎👎👎

Holy crap, that's an amazing one! Damn!

That said, I'm not trying to troll, I was just trying to offer support. Maybe my advice was wrong. I was only trying to help. People are allowed to make mistakes, you know,
