@davidrevoy Why were you forced though? Do I miss something? 🤔

@Natanox Both Tipeee and Patreon have found that only 1% of their creators use the "per-creation" model. It seems they're streamlining their features to focus on more popular options.Patreon initially planned to switch to the new model in Nov2025, but due to technical issues with a payment processor (Apple), they've postponed the deadline several times. Tipeee recently announced a Jan2026 deadline, so I've decided to move both platforms to the new monthly subscription model at the same time.

@davidrevoy It’s so much of the money donated to you goes to the platform or to the platform. The app people donate through is installed on..It would be nice to have a way where artists got the money without a digital bridge toll extracting their tribute

@WTL Good question 👍 The change will take effect on Patreon on 12 January. Until then, the page still shows 'per-content'. This is because I have decided to give one month's notice to allow my patrons to adjust their budgets. (Don't worry though: I won't release the 'per-content' mechanism during this period.)

@GhostOnTheHalfShell Yes, both Patreon and Tipeee takes 5%.The solution you mention about a bridge without this fee exists: https://liberapay.com/davidrevoy/

@davidrevoy you might want to change the denomination of your membership options on patreon. I see 5€/month in the overview of all my memberships, but when looking at your membership options it still shows as "x€ / episode".I really enjoy the short stories you post here. I hope(expect) you will beginn posting them on patreon too, once the switch to monthly is done?

@Numerfolt Liberapay. This is because it doesn't have the 5% fee that Patreon and Tipeee take. (To fund Liberapay, you have to support them... on Liberapay.)

@davidrevoy Okay, I looked at their FAQ and basically there are the transaction fees that I pay? Like I send you 1€ per month and pay some cents so you can get the full €?And I can donate to them too, which is nice.

@pitwenkin Yes I saw it and I'm afraid I can't change it at the moment. Patreon will make the change on their side one month after I publicly announce it. It's all part of their policy for moving accounts around. Just to let you know, I won't be posting the episode until the 12th of January. (the effective date for my first monthly) :) I'll post something on Patreon to let my supporters know about it.(edit: forgot to say, thank you :blobcatheart: )

@gws Ha ha, you mentioned something that made me struggle while drawing this announcement. At first, I drew a little guy with a two-day beard and a brown haircut, sitting at my desk in front of my monitors. But I was worried it wouldn't be really iconic, so I decided to go with Pepper as my avatar. I was fine with it, as I often used her for various things, but maybe it's a bit awkward in the end. 😅

@lazy I'll see, but I've never received anything monthly in my life (except the Liberapay weekly support, and thank you very much for being a part of it, but it was a minor part of income so far). I'm a freelancer working 'per task' since I was 18. I only knew that: making the work, getting paid, and I'm 44 years old 😅 ... I really hope this change will be a good thing!

@davidrevoy Hi David! I heard your interview on #HPR and really appreciate your stance on licencing and using Open Source tooling. Moreover, once I found your content, I think it's excellent. I had planned to go and subscribe but hadn't done so, so this thread is a great reminder - thank you! Having read your FAQ on your webpage, I will use liberapay, so you get as much of the donation as possible. Best of luck with the developing adventure!

@Tywele Monthly or yearly? It certainly will depend on how much you pay in fees when you transfer money. If your bank charges high fees, it may be better to transfer money in one lump sum. If the fees are small or zero, monthly payments are great. My preferred platform is Liberapay because the creator and admin are on Mastodon and the platform doesn't take 5%.Thank you 💜

@davidrevoy I'm so happy to hear you say it worked! To me, the monthly support just feels better even if it didn't make a difference financially. Instead of paying in return for something (which is a transaction), it feels like more like supporting the ongoing work and life of a great artist that has given so much to free/libre culture.

@davidrevoy cheer up! We'll keep supporting your amazing and generous work. Your transparency is as always very much appreciated. One quick question: does this change will also apply on Liberapay? Youention Tipee and Patron, but if we support you through Liberapay on per-content basis, shall we switch to monthly?

@Notus Thank you very much for your support! 💜 Liberapay always prefered (from the start) to not include a per-content system. So, since I have the account (back in 2017) I receive 'weekly' donation on it.Liberapay allows me to download a table with the donation amount and date, and so, with a little table-math I can convert this into a monthly thing and merge the names on the credit ( I'm trying to standardize this to https://www.peppercarrot.com/ext/credits-and-tiers.jpg )

@oscherler You didn't invitent: mid 2024, after problem in the production (cancelling an episode almost done) and during a long period of personal struggle and feeling down, I announced the end on a blog post. That was a mistake. I wish I never published that blog-post.I retracted, but the idea circulated well, way faster than the other blog-posts saying I wanted to continue the series. I'm continuing Pepper&Carrot series, I love it too much. I just had a very bad time. Sorry for that.

@davidrevoy I will probably move over to librepay since you are the only creator I support on Patreon. I also like the idea of you getting my full support instead of partial payment.I'm surprised that you didn't do month to month sooner cause of your new web comic. It's always daunting having to go from freelance, to your own thing, but if you have to step away for a bit due to burnout, don't be afraid to take a break. I'll still support you regardless.
