Nexus Mods Sale Sparks Concern in Modding Community

Literally is, sorry you are so confused about the subject.
It do be like that, but sadly human greed has never once gave us a prime example of actual true to spirit communism

Nobody should be obliged to host bigotry. That's not "censorship" in a way that matters.
Oh yea of course they’re not, and I would say bigotry was not my aim with my comment. The company can do whatever the fuck they want and it’s probably better this way.
I do get that some people might want extreme free speech where nothing gets censored. It allows for other non conventional ideas to spread. For better, and for worse. Yea nowadays it’s often for worse but hey, there’s still a chance. All of this is really subjective.
I just don’t believe that a mod that changes Voice 1 and Voice 2 to Women voice and Men voice is bigotry. Removing pride flags in a game is… well it says a lot of the person, but it doesn’t harm anyone directly and it’s something you have to actively add to your game if you want it. There could be criticism of pride which can be valid as well but that’s beyond my point.
Having this kind of content hidden and with trigger warnings is still more or less doable depending on the content, and can allow for more expression than classical rules, and not only bad expression.
Shitty mods like Crack Life for half-life are super offensive but funny as hell if you take it with a grain of salt. Knowing that could be banned sucks.

You make it sound like the site has been destroyed and enshitefied. Do we have any proof of such so far? Or can we put our trust in the guy who made it to hand it off to someone he trusts to do good by it? Everyone is freaking out about a possibility, which isn't without cause since we've seen what can happen with other companies, but so far there is no need to pull out pitchforks.
Corporations and companies parasitically destroy everything human in the name of money. If it's not a non-profit dedicated to the purpose of providing access to mods, it's just a question of time. Best to just get a new thing started.

But if their argument is that you can simply ignore mods you disagree with, then those individuals should stop brigading against and whining about, say, a mod that enables queer relationships. As their own arguments imply, they can simply ignore those mods.
They should really pick a side instead of cherrypicking what's convenient for them.
I would personally be for that
The offensive mods should be hidden by default or similar, with a trigger warning on the mod asking to move on if you don’t agree instead of crying in comments. Same for LGBT.. stuff, but we can show by default because it’s not offensive, but have a way to hide it so that those that hate social progress won’t cry as well
And there you go. A platform for everyone. You won’t agree with everyone, but you can make the experience tailored to what you want or don’t want to see

Friendly reminder this is the average "stop banning mods" commenter.

That is such a depressing way to look at things

Pretty much all platforms do this. It’s not a bad thing to want a big and established uncensored platform
I'm sure all they're concerned about is censoring and it has nothing to do with anything else.

I'm concerned about it but not for bad reasons. What stats do we have on the different reasons?
Sorting people with "I’m sure they’re all bigots" is a great way to avoid any debate, but very manipulative

Stop banning mods except the ones I disagree with.

Unfortunately, it's just the way it is.
