Sorry to Hound You...

Patreon just produced this year’s Transparency Report, viewable here: https://news.patreon.com/articles/patreontransparencyreport2025
This covers this platform’s actions from 1st January to 31st December 2024.
The same occured last year in fact: https://news.patreon.com/articles/patreon-s-inaugural-transparency-report and I mentioned it here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/about-that-100274169
Now, I know policy and procedure aren’t the most thrilling topics in the world, but it’s worth keeping an eye on so one doesn’t get blindsided. And as a Content Creator, I feel it’s my duty to keep you posted. Should things go pear-shaped for me, at least you’ll know why and can forewarn others.
It reads like a distilled version of last December’s livestream (which I wrote about here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/important-info-117870703 and here https://www.patreon.com/posts/thoughts-after-118009276 )
That said, I’ve kept my ear close to the ground and I haven’t heard anything major approaching that this platform is self-actualising… a lot of disgruntled murmurings about the whole thing regarding a certain fruit-titled phone 🍏 and 👁 app service and a 75-day delay in payments (fortunately I’ve not been too affected by this as most Patrons here went through the website or Android-based app, so go you!) … but aside from that, nothing yet.
Of course, once I hear anything conclusive, I will duly keep you informed.
Thank you for reading.
