UPDATE: iOS Price Increase, SubscribeStar, New Equiptment and Forced Adjustments

Hello, y'all! Here's your update on my progress towards making content again:

• SubscribeStar is up! Old content is not on there yet, but it's coming. Access to content on Discord through a SubscribeStar subscription is an option for anyone who wants to switch support platforms.

• ALL FOLLOWER PATRONS: Due to starting SubscribeStar and balancing the fees vs payout on the back end, I needed to raise the Follower tier to $3. I apologize for any inconvenience this causes, and I appreciate your understanding. This change will be implemented for all Follower tier patrons in the next pay period.

• Opted to make a website that will house my audio Library (the library on the Hero.page is scraped due to complexity and conflicts of wide use).

• More updates on the website will be provided as the project progresses. The best place to search for and access my content is on my Discord. I will update all help pages soon to assist anyone unfamiliar with Discord better. Feel free to include any questions in the comments below. Not only will I do my best to answer them, but I'll include the frequently asked ones in the updated FAQ.

• I finally purchased some new equipment, including a professional recording booth (just for my head). Going forward, I hope this will assist me in being more consistent and that I won't be restricted by time windows (neighbor noise in previous homes). And, of course, I'll have professional-level sound treatments around my mic, so perhaps I'll achieve the level of crisp voice work I've always dreamed of.

Other Announcements:

• iOS/Apple users:
  
  This coming November,
  
  "Apple will be applying their 30% App Store fee to all new memberships purchased in the Patreon iOS app, in addition to anything bought in your Patreon shop."  
  
  I apologize, but due to this strong-arm action by Apple, subscription prices for all new and returning patrons will, unfortunately, be raised starting in November for all iOS and Apple users.

• iOS/Apple User options to above change:
  
  ➡ Resubscribe now or by the end of next month. I will schedule a reminder post during the last week of next month.
  
  ➡ Maintain your existing pledges. You will have to pay the increased prices upon returning.
  
  ➡ Repledge through your web browser or an Android device.
  
  ➡ Switch your subscription to SubscribeStar. Since they don't use an app, they won't be affected by the price increases.
  Note: I will do my best to ensure all content has been uploaded to SubscribeStar by then, but make no promises. Either way, SubscribeStar supporters have access to all paid and free content on my Discord through your SubscribeStar subscription.
