The backlash continues after a large swath of sexually explicit games were removed from Steam and Itch--along with games that feature LGBTQ content and themes.

Neat, I have no shame in admitting I picked it up, I've never played any of these - but if someone tells me I can't try something (or tries to block access because of prudish reasons) I want to immediately see what the fuss is about.

So, anyone recommend one of these to start with? How would you recommend I try to run these on Linux? (It's also my first experience with GoG, but seems neat!)

Go with Heroic Games launcher. It works pretty simply without fuss for gog games in my experience.

from what i have seen, many of the games are done in renpy. usually these ship something like run.py - should be easy enough, if you have python installed.

Hunie Pop is a fantastic game.

Best way to run them on Linux I think would be heroic launcher
