Isn't Roblox basically just a roundabout gambling platform that exploits unpaid child labor?

Well you know capitalism seems to ruin everything eventually.

There are definitely some independent developers on there just trying to make games and/or get some dev experience (and from what I've even told Roblox is a great way to get started) but yeah there's no shortage of labor exploitation in the larger development studios (Conveniently a lot of the same ones Roblox Corp likes to partner with for on-site events)

And as for child gambling: yeah
