>The only thing that impacts this really is chargebacks, which iiuc are much more common with adult stuff.

I think this makes no sense, like "we makes less profits from adult stuff because of charge back, so let\s give up on this profits". Anyway this companies did not use this excuse so why do this old excuse is resufecing now if they did not use it.

They usually just charge a higher fee for the riskier category. If a particular vendor has too many charge backs, they could drop them for that. Obviously not the case with Steam.

I didn’t say it was an excuse given here, have you tried reading the whole comment? It’s not very long and shouldn’t be hard to understand. If it is I can help explain it.

We are not on reddit here, have you paid attention?

Now seriously, you brought some old excuse here for some very inteligent reason, explain please? Do spouses will read that the guy bought something from Steam and she will then conclude the dude is playing very adult games? The excuse does not work as far as I can see, so explain your thoughts or explain why you are just pasting random excuses and then act like a redditor

Read the whole comment because that statement is not an excuse, it is simply a nod to how it differs from other payments. The rest of the comment explains why I think the situation arises like this. It really isn’t hard to read so try and if you think your understanding clashes with my explanation of my comment feel free to assume I’m bad at making a point and read it in good faith.

I clearly don’t understand your issue with what I wrote, and won’t with more accusations of being like a redditor.

I will respectfully disagree, I can't see your comment on topic. you said "The only thing that impacts this really is chargebacks, which iiuc are much more common with adult stuff." and this is something claimed about porn sites but explain how this applies to Steam or GOG, please explain clarly or admit it does not apply.

It’s not about chargebacks. If you can’t understand that from the comment and my followups I’m not able to explain it clearly enough for you and we should end it here, have a nice night.
