The kicker about that though? It's business as usual for everyone that isn't streaming addons/plugins that don't give yourself away. Go ahead and use Gshade, ACT, etc. Your risk has not changed for the time being. If you were using it responsibly before, there's no reason you should rethink it now... unless you stream lol. Though Gshade is still probably gonna be given some leeway.

Current issue is not that "it only affects streamers". If we dont get official response, this will affect literally everyone who posts their screenshots on any social media (discord included). With current witch-hunt (which is against TOS too but guess we can ignore that part of TOS) it doesnt take much - you could have edited your screenshot with photoshop (which many do) but they dont give a damn. They will report and make up you used gshade.

Before this, you could go back to the 2013 post and say "look, they said its allowed". Now? Just report literally everyone because they mightve used reshade. because their photo has deep-green grass instead of washed out green.

There was already someone posting (not sure which site, saw just snippet of it) that they will go thro social media and report people using gshade "as revenge for the streamer hunt".
