    fuckin yes

    The reason not to leave Patreon is how many subscribers are rusted-on legacy payers. I saw one example of a Patreon user who moved their patreon just to another patreon with different features and they lost several hundred dollars a month.

    it suuuuucks

    This was a long anti-tech rant that somehow neglected to mention what their actual issue was and forced me to dive into the links just to get the necessary context to understand what they were talking about. TLDR: Patreon’s moving over to subscription-only and dropping their per-creation billing system because Apple is forcing them to.

      do you even know where you’re posting?

      that somehow neglected to mention what their actual issue was

      ah yes, their “actual issue”. definitely an enigmatic mystery not surmised by the literal post title or a significant amount of context placed in exposition throughout the first part of the post, absolutely ineffable!

      go work on your reading comprehension. and maybe also realize that the world isn’t composed of single-issue considerations. or don’t! you’re free to continue being a clown

        in their previous comments:

        This isn’t lemmy, this is a specific community. And your argument brings us back to the whole issue between mods and community members.

        ya don’t fuckin say, imagine if you were expected to know what a community was for before commenting

          (I’m surprised you got that far. I glanced but the weird rants about late-night tv shows and shit ejected me early)
