Patreon Update
🕑 Added 2023-09-20 19:20:03 +0000 UTCTo those of you who do not know, Patreon has been talking about setting up a system where people will have to verify their age by sending them a picture of their government issued ID.
the I have been hit with an email asking for age verification. This would require me to send a government issued ID with my information to do so. Admittedly, the thought of doing so makes my skin crawl.
I have reached out to Patreon to ask them to be categorized as safe for all audiences, so I don’t have to do it. Depending on the answer I receive will determine my next course of action.
Either things will continue as normal here on Patreon, with some other sources as well for people preference.
If not, I am strongly considering just closing the Patreon and moving to SubscribeStar. While I understand some might not be comfortable or unwilling to do so. I have to think of myself under these circumstances and what I feel comfortable with. I will close the billing cycle and focus primarily on comms that I am working on, and people who have reached out to me.
While I understand this might not be ideal, to some. I do not feel comfortable with the thought of sending it to them. Once I have more information on the situation, and properly set up alternatives, I will do another post about this situation.
Until then, everyone stay safe.

Thank you. Right now, I'm in talks with Patreon and setting up alternatives just in case. I'll keep you and everyone else in the loop as things develop.

The other option might be to move your stuff to a patreon exclusive section of your discord channel and just put alerts here when you post them
