I thought Nexus was pretty neutral when they allowed a mod that replaced a black female in Dying Light 2 to a (much better modeled) White female from the beta despite all the screeching by black supremacists.
Guess that was either a fluke or the rainbow cultists rank higher.
They haven't been neutral since Zcul joined at least. Every time I saw some mod get locked down because it doesn't praise the rainbow, Zcul was involved. Now all of the other staff have fallen into line.
There was also a significant exodus of modders from Nexus when they created that whole "subscribers who pay Nexus can create mod collections that are integrated as a modpack" feature, which created tons of issues with creative control and author attribution.
Besides the obvious, one of the more obscure under-the-hood changes was that modders could no longer completely remove obsolete versions of their mods from Nexus if a Subscriber had created a modpack with their mod. For big, widely popular mods that already struggle to provide Discord tech support for people using their mod, this become a big concern, because it meant people would now start showing up asking support (or reporting bugs) for outdated versions of the mod from a modpack that might not even be fully compatible in the first place.
Prima donas like Arthmoor, who double-dip off open-collaboration/free-culture achievements, are not our friends. Frankly, Nexusmods should have required CC-SA like permissions from the get-go for file hosting, and had pages linking to mods hosted on other websites.
Filtering through tards who can't operate their computer, but expect others to hold their hand, was already bad enough before the DEI wave of the last decade. Creators really need to be drilled into their heads what a sampling bias is, and seen vs unseen in general (vocal minority that whines on mod pages vs silent majority). Platforms could do a lot to signify reputation before being allowed to hassle creators.
Rainbow Cult. Finally, a good name for the New Religion we've been forced to become more and more Politically Correct to since about 1985.
Cult of the Rainbow. Rainbowzos.
