    Gamergate never ended, and the lack of moderation on Steam has made it a very attractive place for fascists to spread propaganda. It’s been a serious problem for a very long time and Valve just isn’t doing anything about it.

    it sounds like this developer goes out of their way to look for hateful comments to be offended about and report. you’re not going to magically fix trolling on on the internet by having people mass report individual comments.

    trolls existed before the internet and they will be annoying shits for centuries to come. this dev needs to stop looking for stress and learn to report and move on.

      Active moderation requires effort and funds. Throwing up your hands saying thats how it’s always been and nothing can be done is enabling the bullshit. Victim blaming the dev when this is widespread is disingenuous at best.
