I canceled ongoing donations to several projects based in the US and stated that my reasons for doing so was US policy against my country. It doesn’t matter if the dev or project lead supports those policies or not, I refuse to contribute to the US economy if I can at all help it.

Can this handle plugins? I use a modded DeDRM on my Kindle Unlimited books, and so require plugin support.

Royal Road has its own issues such as author groups on Discord colluding to drive up member’s “Rising Star” rankings, and drive down the stories of authors they don’t like. Also, very inconsistent moderation policies that highly favour certain authors over others who just so happen to be friendly with mods, etc.

I also don’t believe it’s open source, so I’m not sure how it’s really any “more free” than any other fanfic platform out there in the fediverse sense.
