The interesting part is who is not on the list e.g. HoYoverse.

It has been speculated by many that this is all about Unity Technologies wanting a much larger share of the billion dollar profits of the gatcha games based on Unity.

If all indie devs quit Unity, but HoYoverse (the company behind the money printing press "Genshin Impact") does not, it would still massively increase the profits of Unity Technologies.

Of course because we are literally talking about billions of dollars on the table here HoYoverse & Co will probably all try sueing first.

From what I heard, Unity China is not actually owned by Unity, and Hoyoverse has a stake in Unity China: https://www.gamesindustry.biz/unity-reportedly-looking-to-se...

So the answer here may legitimately be that Hoyoverse isn't affected by this.

Why are people so misinformed and spreading misinfo around?

Genshin is using a highly customized Unity Engine bound under Unity China and the developer hoyoverse is a major shareholder in Unity China as well.

Unity China is a separate entity from Unity Technologies.
