Regarding the iOS payment update + poll results
Added 2024-08-13 02:41:50 +0000 UTCIn case you haven't seen it, Patreon will now be forced to pay a big fee to Apple for people who pledge in the iOS app. They let us choose between letting every person pay the fee themselves (thus increasing how much you pay each month) or having creators eat the fee (making us receive less).
I've gone with the former for now. I don't know how many of you will be affected, but I STRONGLY suggest anyone using their iOS phones to switch to paying through a desktop environment instead to avoid the fee completely.
From what I've heard, they're also being forced to remove 1st-of-the-month and per-creation payment options, which shouldn't affect anyone here since I made the change to day-of-subscription payment a few months ago, but I figured it would be important information if any of you are in other patreons with those payment options.

In other news, here's the results of the most recent poll:
A very close win this time! I'll be working on this sequence throughout the week.

Make payments through the browser and not the apple store. They don't get a cent from that
