Important Update - New archive links & Cleanup
🕑 Added 2023-02-04 21:42:03 +0000 UTCHi ! I have decided to do some cleanup on my fanbox posts, since scrolling down doesn't seem like a very comfortable task on fanbox. I have archived old posts, and I have remade mega.nz and proton drive links.
Mega Archive : https://mega.nz/folder/K5cCXKSC#4Pw4KOS3sPBx8MRjn8vdCQ
Proton Archive : https://drive.proton.me/urls/G5V5DGH7XG#c5n77CtvLkiu
I have also noticed that there are much few new artists appearing, and much less new content posted over the internet. I have noticed that PayPal and Fanbox have a problem, because PayPal ban people who got revenue from anything NSFW related.
Stupid rule, I know, but I got worried as I want this hobby to become my job in the future. I don't think that sharing content via Fanbox using external links can be harmful, but just to be sure, I am considering a discord option. I'd prefer to simply stick to fanbox, but sadly, USA are being assholes with this.
Subscribestar, Patreon, offer bank transfers, but they also need all your personal data and tax ID. So unless someone makes an alternative for PayPal, or Patreon but outside the US, we need workarounds. Discord started to do donations like Patreon, but being based in California, they forbid NSFW revenue :D
I've seen artists transforming their fanbox into simple tip jars. I think that works, but it's annoying for both the artists and fans. Discord needs moderation, but on the other hand, might be a fun place for people looking for the same interests. Yet, Discord stays sensitive with the NSFW category, and servers are getting banned.
So yeah, to conclude, for now I will only do latest posts and updates here, and keep archive links accessible for subscribers. We'll see how will this whole situation unravel in the next year, and my priority is you guys, my followers, my content, and insuring to have some revenue flowing in order to have this thing going.
Thank you, and cheers !

It's such a shame, because you got a beautiful thing going here. Lots of people fear change and things that are different to them. Hence most of the restrictions. tbh I am too afraid to be myself around my family because I fear rejection. Living a secret life can be such a pain.
