After thinking about the topic again, I believe a major issue is, how hidden and unpromoted the itch.io landing page is. The naked itch.io.

It is the itch icon in the top row. It is always there and does not even look like a link, as it is an image and all the other things are text.

Or is this just me? I just never needed to visit that page and as I said, it is hidden in plain sight. My bookmark points to my library.

I'm trying to make games, so my bookmark ended up being my own page. From there, I can click on "Dashboard" (so long as my login is valid), and from there, "Browse" appears. Which takes me to the /games URL.

I tried to avoid what was most-promoted by avoiding what would be "featured" on the naked page. Not to sound like a hipster. Algorithms tend to feed me the opposite of what I want, because reasons.
