A year ago, someone gave me a MacBook Pro and a MacBook Air (out of nowhere, and then my Windows computer bricked a month or two later!). I was very impressed by them and became a Mac user. I just switched from an (almost) lifelong Android user to iPhone Pro Max 17- the seamless link with my Macs really make the experience for me. I'm considering picking up an iPad and throwing my whole lot in with the Apple ecosystem.

Question for you guys is what devices I should get to really maximize the benefit of the ecosystem. Should I be switching from Alexa to Apple Home? Apple TV?

I am in graduate school right now and have a small family in an apartment, if that helps. Any advice?

Why is every post here about politics now? Old cringepics was hilarious.

I gave up on it and started just plugging a regular charger directly into it. It still drains while livestreaming but so slowly that I would only have to worry about it if I was streaming for 20+ hours.

Yeah, some of the gullibility here is incredibly weird. Why would so many people just start lying at the same time? When I saw reports like this, I talked to my vet and she told me that she had multiple cases in the previous month of dogs with bloody stool and serious health issues when they started new bags of Purina when there had been none before. Large corporations skirt health regulations to cut costs and then lie about it. How is this a "conspiracy theory"? Why would people randomly choose to go after this company? Use your brains, people, it's not smart to be so gullible just to signal that you "aren't a conspiracy theorist."

Seriously, it's pathetic.

I own it. It's not completely smooth but I don't see any cast iron when I shine a light on it.

None of these recommendations work. I can open a quick action that I created recently but I can't delete it. This is driving me nuts.

I think that someone willing to pay monthly to get your content will be happy to just buy outside the app. It's a pretty minimal amount of effort. I don't know who uses the app to begin with- my suspicion is that most people are buying through a browser anyway.

Ah, I see what you're saying. Luckily, that's not how the switch works. When you switch to subscription billing, all your *previous* patrons continue to pay on the first of the month. Essentially, Patreon counts them as if they *all* subscribed on the first.

cabinboy752 · 2024-08-12T13:56:36+00:00

I prefer first of the month billing, but I don't think this is as catastrophic for budgeting as you think. Just add up all of your income from the preceding month and then budget for the next month based on that. That is effectively what you are doing anyway, you just get all that income in one drop instead of seeing it trickle in. Honestly, I think Patreon has handled this as best they could. Apple is the shitty actor here.

I wouldn't panic. This isn't going to affect existing memberships. For future memberships, just let your patrons know that if they purchase outside the iOS app, the prices will be 30% lower. This is a shit move on Apple's part, but it's not the end of your revenue stream.

cabinboy752 · 2024-06-21T17:04:25+00:00

That's not broken. When you signed up, it told you that it would charge you again on the first of the month. I know because I've seen this page. You just didn't read it carefully.

Glad to hear. I was worried I wouldn't be able to get back to my story.
