Website Changes

I just wanted to let you all about some new changes to my site - specifically there are now ads.
I have always wanted to make my site the one place on the internet where you weren't bombarded by ads. But like many of you I am feeling the impacts of the inflation and the current economic state. Running my site costs me over $500 a month just to handle the traffic and offer things like a different experience for logged in users. As much as I want to keep paying this cost out of pocket, I honestly just can't afford it anymore.
HOWEVER, I am working with a company (Ezoic) and we are actively working to make it so if you are logged in through Patreon you will see ZERO ads. It may take a day or two for ads to be removed for you all, so please bear with me - I am working to fix this as fast as I can.
Even though you all should will not see ads when you are logged in, I want you to know I have been working with the Ezoic to ensure there are no confusing and/or misleading ads. Even for non-patrons, I don't want any ads on my site that mislead users on what button to click for a download etc. So during the next few days if you see something that is deceptive, please let me know because that is the last thing I want.
In the meantime, please hang with me. In the next few days ALL ads will be removed for you when you are logged in through Patreon. This was truly a super hard decision to make and I didn't take it lightly. You all are always so supportive and, as usual, I am sure you all will have nothing but kind words to say... but honestly I feel so bad about making this change. I promise I would not do it if I didn't absolutely need to - I went almost 4 years with no ads but I just couldn't fiscally survive without it anymore. I hope you understand 🙏🏻 (and also you should have no ads soon).
Final note - OMSP+ is ~finally~ getting released this week. Just putting on the final touches now!!
I love you all!

ads are a fact of life. i can sit through ads instead of no ads as it usualy cost more and there so much in this life like food and gas prices thats needs more more then the no ad siyuation. your work is fantastic and if theres ads, to help with cost, then so be it.. your worth it
