In #1150 @betehess proposes ActionPlatform as a class, to accompany the existing https://schema.org/actionPlatform

However we also have a similar construct on VideoGame and VideoGameSeries, i.e. https://schema.org/gamePlatform - this property is currently super open-ended (Text/URL/Thing).

There are also some unofficial terms in widespread use dating from the days before we had the "Pending" mechanism for proposals: http://schema.org/DesktopWebPlatform http://schema.org/MobileWebPlatform http://schema.org/AndroidPlatform http://schema.org/IOSPlatform. To these I would suggest we add a general /WebPlatform, since much content now tries to target both mobile and desktop; not to mention the other environments the Web is available from (e.g. WebXR browsers).

I suggest we start with an enumeration that can be used by both actionPlatform and gamePlatform, and be open to adding new codes to it as they're suggested here.

On closer inspection, the granularity expected for something like game platforms is quite different (e.g. see this wikidata list). However I believe we're better off with an enumerated list that can be extended in an ad hoc manner, rather than using classes here. It's also probably a good idea to not tie this solely to actions, so I'm using DigitalPlatformEnumeration but with disclaimers to emphasise that the list is a starting place rather than a complete enumeration.
