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

oh good, Siderea is excellent and an accomplished bureaucracy warrior, I'll take her tips on this

thinking of a big notice on my page DO NOT SIGN UP VIA THE IPHONE APP but will also ask Patreon for creators to be able to disable the iOS app
