Switching to Subscribestar
🕑 Added 2023-05-05 22:26:35 +0000 UTCPatreon replied me once again saying basically that I have no choice than giving my ID/Photo, despite them saying they will look into other alternatives, in the end nothing happened.
I've been here for 8 years, I pay taxes and I've been around in the Art community for around 15 years or even more. Despite of that or offering official Tax documents, none of that counts, they want my ID and photo to verify I'm over 18, I can't shake the feeling Im being treated unfairly just for being a NSFW artist.
As long I have choices to prevent giving my ID/photos I'll keep resisting, that choice will be Subscribestar.
I'll keep Patreon paused, so don't unsubscribe yet so you dont lose access (unless you dont mind), you won't be charged or at least you shouldn't. Once I make the account and test it around I'll let you know. I still don't know the process about the payments or such, so before making a full transition I need to test around with the platform.
I'll change how things work too, I'll probably remove the point system since Subscribestar doesn't offer an easy way to track income I think. I'm also unsure if I'll keep the Artpack rewards too since they are available for purchase in other stores.
Regardless once I set up the new page I'll check what to do with the new rewards and then let you know.
Thank you for your constant support!
As for doing a Ko-fi or Pixiv, I'll keep it in mind depending how things turns out.

Yeah, or at least be more flexible with poeple who was here already, regardless the new SS should work I think.

Ok, well, thanks for the heads-up. I think so, Patreon is not fair to you. Well, I hope your switch to Subcribstar is the right choice. Best luck!

It’s truly a shame how Patreon is acting. An 8 year old account should absolutely be enough proof that you’re over 18. Either way I will for sure follow you over to whatever platform you have to move to. Hopefully everything works out with Subscribestar.
