I wanted to move this to its own thread so as to let folks get back to talking about the Chains of Asmodeus.
For those just tuning in, a question about the viability of hiring sensitivity readers by indie developers came up in that thread. Doing so would certainly be an extra expense on top of already very thin margins.
So presuming a indie developer is interested in sensitivity and inclusion, what can one do in order to embrace those ideals in their work that does cause undue financial hardship and essentially make it impossible to produce some work.
Note that this discussion is centered on very small publishers, not QotC or Paizo or Kobold etc....Folks that publish on itchio, DMsGuild, DTRPG, etc, often as individuals or small teams.
Thanks for keeping it civil and on topic.
