Please stop paying me via iOS and Android. (regarding payment and the exchange rate)
I made the mistake of launching my Patreon with payments set in US dollars. It wouldn’t have been too much of an issue if Trump hadn’t been elected… anyway. Right now, I don’t think I can afford to keep getting paid in dollars, especially since the exchange rate between the dollar and the euro might keep widening. The fees are just too high and prevent me from being able to make a living from this project.
I could change the currency on my Patreon, but the fact that some people make their payments through their Apple or Google play account (on their smartphone) prevents me from doing so (the payment stays pending for 75 days, which blocks the option to change the currency).
So I’m considering two options: tying the prices to the exchange rate, or launching a new page with the right currency. The release would be published in the new page, while I would keep posting the post on the old page, allowing people to gradually migrate to the new page. I’ll let you know in advance when I start making the change. For now, I’m working on other things. But I wanted to start talking to you about it already.
