I don’t think it has cloud saving, easy wine/proton, API for achievements and shit… just overall unfit for “bigger games”. It has similar functionality to GOG’s offline downloads. I haven’t really used it so can’t say.
I probably won’t try it if they also take a huge cut from sales like 30% or somethingEDIT: They seem to let you choose whatever you want, and charge 10% by default (https://itch.io/docs/creators/payments#open-revenue-sharing). That’s neat! However, payment method fees always apply. You can opt into them collecting the money through their account at seemingly no fee, and won’t be exposed to chargebacks. That’s incredible!
