    They sold to IGN a few years ago.

    It was also when they introduced a $7 minimum humble tip for the bundles.

      it lets me customise the tip/charity/bundle organiser ratio and i’m 85% sure I’ve gone under $7 for the tip multiple times

        You can still customize it, but it has hard minimum at what I think is $7. The old humble had no minimum at all. They also deceptively set the “default” cost 1 tier above the actual “get all the items” cost for bundles. A very irritating and obvious dark pattern.

        Just IGN brutalizing a beloved name in gaming via enshittification to make its money back.
