State of things (updated 28 Aug 2022)

Alright, long story short why I have both Patreon and Boosty accounts now:

1) Due to my citizenship and current turmoil in the Europe PayPal transfers are unavailable to me. Therefore it is quite a challenge to get your pledges to me. I cannot describe how I do it currently, but the, let's call it "tax" is quite significant. Also, from August 2022 Patreon is banned in my country, lel. 

2) At the moment Patreon is sadly losing a battle to the pirates, and it gets annoying that basically any content I post here gets to the internet in a couple of days, if not hours. That can break any artists will to create and post new stuff. Yes, there are solutions on how to make content more leak-proof, but they are not user-friendly. And honestly, it should be Patreon job and financial interest to fight piracy, so I'm hoping they will gain the upper hand. 

Anyway, here's my page on Patreon-clone (made by well-known and respectable DonationsAlert team):

My plans for the future are:

1) I will continue posting on Patreon, but total amount of content will be reduced. Hoping to give you two comic pages per month + one usual character of the month picture. 

2) Boosty page will be my main focus, so most of the content will be posted there. 

Content on Boosty and Patreon will be different, to comply with Patreon rules on exclusivity of the content posted on their platform. 

3) I will try not to die in all that turmoil. And I hope you'll be safe too. 

Love, VanSchalk!

Dear Patreon Trust & Safety team - I understand that you don't like that people promote Patreon competitors by linking them, but at the moment Patreon can't pay me directly and the issue with piracy is horrifying in scale. I still gotta feed my family and pay my bills, so I simply have no choice but to seek for alternatives until you fix those issues. If they'll be fixed - I will happily make Patreon my #1 posting platform again.
