      - ... although now that I say that, I realize that this year was literally the first time I saw an NHL game in person. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 8, 19:35
Patreon has screwed the pooch, so either your favorite content creator will suffer or you may end up paying a lot more than you intended - Tim Dec 8, 19:19 10
- Hmm. Linked from b's engadget article. -- (link*) - Beryllium Dec 8, 19:33
- oh wow, I hadn't seen anything about this. it sucks for me - low amounts, but sometimes multiples in a month. nm but: -- (link) - b. Dec 8, 19:27 6

    - You agree with puppetcumber -- nm - Dano Dec 8, 19:47
  - Yeah, it screws over people who donate small amounts to multiple creators the most. - Tim Dec 8, 19:30

    - me, too, sometimes. - b. Dec 8, 19:09 2
      - I'm favoriting this -- nm - Epiphany Dec 9, 06:23
