And Another Update... Again
🕑 Added 2025-05-17 16:14:04 +0000 UTCI was deliberating between doing this as its own post or whether I should merge it with what they’re going to say on Tuesday… but an email I received last night made me decide on the former. If they reiterate all this information on the Policy Livestream thing as they’re alluding to here, then fair enough… it’s best to err on the side of caution.
Preamble over, as I indicated at the beginning of the month— https://www.patreon.com/posts/important-update-128001823 --- a certain court ruling at the end of April 2025 means a change-of-course for this platform.
To directly quote the e-mail sent to me:
That said, yesterday (16th May at the time of writing this), there was a very notable pushback. It resulted in a certain famous multi-platform game (whose parent company/developers/publisher initially kicked off the whole debacle in the first place) made inaccessible initially in the US and then worldwide, despite the recent ruling. You can read in full what happened here: https://www.eurogamer.net/apple-blocks-fortnites-return-to-iphone-in-us
I guess that explains this addendum that was also in the email correspondence to me.
You can read this for yourself on Patreon’s own… Patreon, Patreon-for-Creators, and this post specifically: An update on our iOS app experience and what comes next | Patreon
The post is publicly accessible, so you don’t need an account to view it. I implore you share the above so as many people know about it as possible, since I myself am no longer on social media to do the deed myself. And that’s it for the moment.
No lie; it’s a massive weight off my mind now I no longer see November 2025 as the day the moon falls, if you get my meaning…
Still, one can’t be too complacent given we’re all like candles in the wind for reasons other than certain external stimuli that's best left unmentioned here… but still, it’s nice to embrace the sunlight, if only for a little.
Sorry for nothing fancy illustratively-speaking, I am working flat out as is. But still, this is information is important, so please look forward to my write-up of next week’s aforementioned Policy Update thing (if you’re a paid member... I think?). Not fun, but it has to be done.
Thank you for all your support and patience with me.
Yours Sincerely,
‘Kam
P.S. I probably should stick all this important information stuff in its own Collection folder thing since for whatever reason, they seem to be phasing out the tags and being able to search for specific posts via them...
