The US games industry isn't ever going to unionize if most devs sit back & wait for the most marginalized among us to solve the problems so we can benefit from stability someday... which is what's currently happening.

When I give talks about workers' rights in games, just about every dev is like YES I WANT THAT, and then asks me... when is it happening? When can I sign up for healthcare & stability?

As soon as you help build it. It won't happen without you. https://www.gameworkersunite.org/get-involved 

Game Workers Unite needs new volunteers. It needs more people involved. We cannot just count on this eventually happening because public opinion has shifted. That's not how this works. People need to talk about it, advocate, meet, & contribute.
