I am certainly not sure. That's why I quoted it and replied to it as if it meant it literally, since I wasn't sure how else to interpret it. If you have a different, less bigoted-seeming interpretation, please do share.

From the article you linked

There are several kinds of free-to-play business models. The most common is based on the freemium software model, in which users are granted access to a fully functional game but are incentivised to pay microtransactions to access additional content or more powerful in-game assets.

I don't think it's okay to be white, but I also think that it takes a while for white folks to realize that they can stop being white.

Sorry, what? Race isn't something you can change, and nor is it something you should feel ashamed about/be discriminated against

I think the term is freemium.

Oh, from what they said, it seemed like they were referring to the games themselves, rather than adverts about those games. But if they did mean the ads, then I agree, all ads are bad because they try to manipulate you to spend money - not just any specific ad or group of ads.

At least you get a third option. So many things require me to pick male or female, with no other options.

They're not hues, but they are colors, which is a combination of hue, saturation, and brightness.

You cloned the repository and everything? I looked into that, but the install seemed very annoying, I'll wait until something like this is in a package manager.

That's a big claim, that every free to play game is maliciously preying on people. Here are some counterexamples: Unciv, Minetest, Shattered Pixel Dungeon. I honestly would have expected to find more love and less hate for free games on a community that is usually such a FLOSS advocate.

Heliboard, very customisable and doesn't send all my typing to a MAGMA company's servers.

No, it's on F-Droid, which is better.
