Well... that's a weird choice by Patreon to make the like and comment bubbles already filled in with a color so it's hard to tell if I've actually liked it or not... but.. I do like it!

The new update has one of the worst most counterintuitive UIs I've ever seen that it's actually frankly impressive. It almost feels avant garde, or like a psychological experiment.

WHAT IS UP WITH THIS UPDATE AND WHY DID IT TAKE ME AGES TO FIND THIS POST

Troo

All logo-ed by a lima bean.

Omggg I just got their email talking about the "new patreon"; I clicked on it to see what they changed, and never in my life have I been drowned in so many meaningless buzzwords. Holy shit.

Troo

I haven't seen it yet. I fear it now. :D

I really like how you can’t unfollow on the app anymore and have to go to the website! It also doesn’t differentiate between following and subscribing, which is contributing to the feed clutter.

I love these panels as much as I *hate* this Patreon update, which is to say, EXTREMELY A LOT.

Changeling

Thanks, y'all, for doing the update ..... I'm not gonna update it until the damn app crashes if I don't 😅

It's true, magic and war are usually shown to be too explosive for war to last long

Does anyone know how to join the sketch chat? It says agree to guidelines to join but I can’t find anywhere to agree to a guideline :(

FrankensteinsMonsterFriend

I haven't opened the chats to the public yet because I just wanted to see what it looks like vjskjfkdnf I didn't realize it'd show people before I was ready to open them I'm sorry sigkskvjfj I do think I'll be opening that one though at least!

JS

Ahh! Well that makes sense! I thought it was the horrible new Patreon re-design. Patreon sent out an email announcing the chat. No worries, you don’t have to open it if you don’t want to! I just adore all of your work and want to see it alllll!

FrankensteinsMonsterFriend

I like the idea of a chat feature I was just caught off guard gjskfkek I don't want people getting a bunch of notifications if they don't want them though so I wanted to know how it affects them before opening it.

JS

I just got the one email per chat to say you started one, but that’s all. I can’t speak for everyone, but I don’t mind it at all.

A war with magic would be devastating. Not only for the people, but for the land as well. Love that you show how barren the land is in two of these panels.

saturn andromeda

pls i was like literally the most basic UX rules is like don’t make extra clicks and shit where you don’t need them. like truly patreon was fine how it was and they def coulda added chat if they wanted with out doing all of this *gestures wildly*

saturn andromeda

the funniest thing is the app logo doesn’t wanna fully update on my phone so it’s still the old one (but app itself is updated) but when i click to open the app it flashes to the new logo for a sec

I always feel like stories with war in them make it far too sexy, I personally like to focus on the background human element and how it affects people who aren't sexy hero soldiers.

Dakota Downey

Yay, updates! Boo patreon turned itself into a bean lmao

Shinju

Absolutely love that. <3 Also like that one of the main characters is wearing a mask/helmet to protect themselves. We all know the sexy hero soldiers don't wear helmets. Ever. Have to be able to see their sexy hero soldier smolder.

And now my inbox is getting emails every time someone sends a message in the Patreon chat. But it doesn't include the message of the chat. It just tells me that if I want to read it, I have to install the app on my phone. These people can't manage to make their website work correctly. I am NOT putting an app they are putting out on my phone.

humandisaster

they're vaguely purple when you like things. it's hard to discern and I've missed it a few times, but ugh!!

Troo

To my knowledge, I have never signed up for chat room. And I am getting email alerts when the chat room does things. I think there have been 2 so far. It might have been the alerts that you set up the chats. As I couldn't read the content, I have no idea.

FrankensteinsMonsterFriend

so only 2 emails for the 2 rooms i set up and nothing else? no emails for messages sent in the chat? that's my biggest concern is people being spammed for actual chat messages

lady_inkblot

Is the chat officially up and running? On my homepage I can see little chat previews that look like they’re from today, but if I try to join it just keeps telling me ‘something’s gone wrong’ or ‘could not view chat’.

Troo

To my knowledge, it was just the first two. I'll pay more attention and let you know if it's more than that. But.. being unable to see the content of any of the emails other than them just telling me to get the app, I won't know if they are new chats or chats in a chat. Wheee. I can't find any settings anywhere that let me opt in or out of chat stuff through the PC website.

Troo

I'm actually kinda grumpy about that. I would really like to be involved with the chats, but not at the price of putting the app on my phone.

Browser-based patreon seems mostly unaffected, for now. This travel-montage series of pages is doing a lot of worldbuilding heavy lifting without a lot of text, and i am here for it.

saturn andromeda

apparently the chat is an app only feature. i went back to the “welcome to the new patreon” email and they are like chat available exclusively in the new app which is ridiculous

O.M.F.G what were they thinking when they did this update and pre-shaded the like button in a gray, and when you like it it has this subtle change in colour, so you have to look twice to work out whether you liked this post or not. I mean, talking about overkill of such a simple function.

saturn andromeda

yeah i got emails last night when you first tried out the chat thing

Tiffany McLeod

The colors of this page looks amazing.

FrankensteinsMonsterFriend

Thank you!! The first two panels were inspired by a dream I had a long time ago that I've always wanted to try to put onto page 🤩

Beeeee

Is Louie dressed like a lil PRINCESS? 👀🥰
