NEWS: Patreon Listened...And Apologized! (And The Fee Changes Are Cancelled) · 6:18pm Dec 13th, 2017
Patreon won a lot of trust, respect, and business back today.
They realized they screwed up, they're not changing the way processing fees work, and they're going to try to find a better way to fix the problem that started all this.
So yeah, we're back on model and back on soliciting Patreon pledges. ^_^
Awesome! I was getting worried about that.
Huh. So they did listen and did a smart. Good on them.
The most impressive part about all of this is that the company, knowing it screwed up, issued a public apology. That is a lot more than a lot of companies have done.

Yep. Mad respect for them for that.
Problem is, how many creators ended up losing significant amounts of income due to patrons that left because of the fees, and either fail to hear this news or don't care enough to come back? :/
