New Discord rewards! (Patreon)
Content
I've decided to set up a Discord for Patrons - presumably all of you should be getting an invite of some description or another as I write this...thought it'd be nice as a general chat thing for people. We'll see how it goes anyway! Currently anyone who pledges gets a user invite, and $10+ pledges have mod privileges. It's all baby steps, obviously and I'm kinda flying by the seat of my pants with this thing, but hopefully it all works well and y'all can enjoy it.
In other news...alas, the days of big long and fun closing credit outros are over. YouTube is pushing heavy on end screens now! Because annotations no longer work on mobile! (If they ever did) and apparently everyone watches YT on mobile devices now...bah. End screen stuff, unfortunately, can only be 20 seconds long at most - meaning that most people's outros are probably gonna end up looking pretty much the same, lol. So...yeah, it can't be ignored - what's the point in setting up all these annotations if all these people can't use them? *sigh* - it'd be fine if YT just made the end screen stuff...y'know, longer. Which surely they could, but they're not because...well, they're pricks. Anyway, the upshot of it all is that I've put one of these things in the new vid (you'll see it tomorrow morning), and obviously 20 seconds isn't long enough for a big reading out of names. What I may well do from now on is incorporate the reading into the monthly Patreon Q&A, as I'd rather it didn't die out completely...that's one thing. Hopefully this isn't too disappointing, and the Discord stuff makes up for it somewhat.
Anyhoo...hope you enjoy the new vid tomorrow! Wherever you are and whoever you be, have a good one.
