A small update.
🕑 Added 2020-05-28 23:04:38 +0000 UTCBesides me being lazy, there's a few things that'll be changing.
- The website will get an update eventually removing the banner at the top
- I'm moving away from Patreon.
The first is overdue, by like a year.
The second is because I don't agree with Patreon's removal of several friend's accounts.
I will (eventually) be moving to Liberapay. I've already made the account and you can find it posted in the announcements channel in discord. It'll be on the site shortly under the usual donation / contribute button.
With this will come some changes, namely the anonymity of the donations. However most of you are not anonymous and I will be updating the site to give more options for anon donations, including Bitcoin and Ethereum.
For those that got all worried, no I'm not closing the Patreon, just preparing for the future.
Personally, Patreon's fees are pretty bad when I consider that 10%(?) of my potential donations go towards supporting a site that's pushing away artists I enjoy. In some cases forcing them to just not art anymore.
Also don't forget to attend Brony Bash Online https://bronybash.online coming up June 19-20th.

Understandable.

I'll have to go though a pretty lengthy process to get a Stripe account. It took a good few months to get my PayPal years ago. Process might be easier now days but debatable. I'll look into it and get started if it's not asking unreasonable amounts of data.
