@darius I think you should give yourself more credit fwiw. I think the org did become "more pro-labor". I think after you left there was an increased awareness that the IGDA *could* speak on behalf of labor issues, and I recall Kate doing that a number of times, I think? And the creation of the Advocacy track at GDC I think has made a big difference in gamedev culture. I see a throughline of influence. There was more than one, certainly, but I think your voice made a difference. Just my $0.02.

@darius I've always had a hard time figuring this out as you know. I don't stand firmly on either side.

Is it the case that professional organizations can't coexist with unions? Is that something we conclusively see in other industries? To me they have very different functions, but I do think your argument is valid.

Honestly the sort of "middle privilege" of programming is the biggest hurdle I've seen. And the libertarian roots of that field.
