Patreon "U Turn" over fees :)
🕑 Added 2017-12-13 23:10:27 +0000 UTC Guys the pressure from creators and donators has paid off, I just received this email a few mins ago.
Dear creators,
From the bottom of our hearts, we’re truly sorry. Last week’s service fee announcement caused a tough week for you, your patrons, and your teams. We were trying to solve a problem for creators and, in turn, caused more problems for you and your patrons.
You’ve spoken loud and clear. We’re not going to rollout the changes to our payments system that we announced last week, and are currently assessing other options.

Its probably time (as suggested above) you start looking at using other funding platforms. If they want to gouge their users this badly they will find a way.
Mack, I'm still looking to get of Patreon anyway, I've been keen to since they threw off Lauren Southern because they disagree with her politics (I don't, and don't expect a payment processor to judge me). Now that www.makersupport.com is up and running and we have a free speech alternative I will still close this account soon. It would be great of you could also have an account there so I can support you there.
