So...Apparently Patreon is Having Some Trouble
Added 2020-08-02 19:28:57 +0000 UTCWhich is unfortunate. The plan is that, if Patreon does go belly up (hopefully it won't come to that), I will at some point post where I'm next setting up in the news section at my website bombtehsite.net. I would hope that my patrons would somehow find me. It would be one HELL of a set back, but hopefully we could work through it.

2020-08-04 18:04:09 +0000 UTChow hard would it be to just set up a pay/donate botton that is with paypal from your site. just like your games are but when you donate your get a link/password to download X=games and every month just change the password. other then that I guess your need a blog?? or a something, Discord.

They also changed their TOS during the case, and the changes are illegal under California law, opening them to even more court cases. https://reclaimthenet.org/final-ruling-patreon-owen-benjamin-injunction-denied/
2020-08-02 20:13:45 +0000 UTCMight be a kind of oldschool solution, but maybe set up something like a mailing list? You can use it as sort of a backup for sending news through Patreon, and if they do end up shutting down in the future, you can just swap to the mailing list til you find a new site (or stick with your existing site).
2020-08-02 20:10:13 +0000 UTCIs it some new policy Patreon is placing?
