    Roskomnadzor claims Roblox contains content that will have a “negative impact on the spiritual and moral development of underage users.”

    Remove the “spiritual and moral” part of this and I’d agree 100% with them lol.

    Anyway, rare win for Roblox I guess.

      I feel like the only winners here are Russian kids who no longer have their brains rotted and creativity exploited by Roblox.

        I’m really struggling to think of if this is a bad thing, in actuality. I mean the premise, obviously yikes, but this inadvertently also might be the best thing Russia has done for their youth in years.
