Are you still jumping out of windows in expensive clothes?

Patreon is backing down on its chiseling fee structure change: "We messed up. We're sorry, and we're not rolling out the fees change."

This is a good thing to hear. It is not complete. Creators have lost patrons and income and trust and I would like to know how Patreon plans to make any of that back up. I want to know that they are addressing not just the "problems" but the mindset that made this payments system overhaul look like a good idea in the first place. But in the words of umadoshi, I am feeling cautiously optimistic. The Washington Post has further details.

Keep 'em coming, Festival of Lights.

Great news, though I know a lot of people already lost patrons. I hope the patrons will return.

I hope so, too. One of mine already has. (I wrote and thanked them.)
