the Gumroad debakel =/
Added 2024-03-18 17:57:20 +0000 UTCAs most of you will probably have heard Gumroad booted me and all the other NSFW artists off the platform I'm still looking for alternatives but I'd strongly urge you to download all the archives I provided there. Gumroad has made erratic unwise and also illegal decisions before. In my understanding, they should still provide the file hosting of purchased files but I cannot guarantee how they deal with NSFW content in the future. I'll switch to a different system of providing my content and see what's what at the end of the month. But as you might be able to imagine this sadly takes time away from creative work and I do have to deal with it since quite a big part of my income come through gumroad's product based purchases.
The only thing I know is that porn has and will prevail XD
I'm already aware of Itch.io // payhip // sendowl // justforfansso far, if any of you got other alternatives I'd be looking for a platforms that do Taxes and product based systems not subscription systems

je stripe and paypal seemed to have pressured. I took the packs offline, other creators still do sales I dunno ... i have a queezy feel as to how gumroad deals with all of this so i ll take a low risk approach cos I don't wanna loose service for all of your content downloadability.
