"I truly do not care if ConcernedApe speaks on pronouns in the game any more,” one user said. “I want [him] to condemn the transphobia and violence against the trans members of the community.”

How in the hell is this his responsibility? We have to prove our allegiances now? If I ever become a game dev I'm keeping my head down.

It's not "allegiances". A literal child asked for a game feature and transphobes started leaking that child's personal information online.

It's not Eric's fault, but it still is his responsibility to make sure there's a safe way to request features without getting doxxed.

It is not a creator's responsibility to handle shitheads on a completely unrelated website. That's absurd.
