In short... Patreon's dangerous incompetence has reached a point where I can no longer tolerate it. I will be transitioning over to SubscribeStar in the near future. Fear not, you will be taken care of... even the guy who JUST paid for a year of Tier Two.
I am a free speech absolutist. Even though Patreon is a private company I've hated that they've shut down people on the left and right. If you've enjoyed seeing people you disagree with get cancelled because you considered their opinions "hate speech" please consider this... It might not be people you agree with defining hate speech in the future. It might be people you disagree with vehemently. Our solution to this has been free speech for all... especially people you disagree with. (I'm not defending speech that is already illegal in the US.)
The last straw was when I went to post samples for visitors, non-patrons. I tried to post the image above (un-censored) and got the message that is the second image. Their AI flagged it apparently because the image had cleavage and you could see the skin of her legs. No nudity. No adult pose. I put the big red block over her cleavage and tried to post again. Same message. Then I put the big block on her legs and it let me post it. So, basically I can't post sample images. So people visiting can't get an idea of what's been posted for patrons. And it's because these fools would rather control the content of their customers than allow people to post what they wished to be viewed by people that wish to view it. (My page is marked "ADULT" so only people that wish to see adult material can see it.) And of course all the samples I've posted in the past that are MUCH racier are fine. Because their incompetence is second only to their grotesque desire to control other people.
I am spitting fire right now. I'm so angry it's difficult to think. I've made my case as politely as I can.
