Increased price for new iOS users (Patreon)

Apparently, if you use Patreon's app for iOS, they'll be using increased prices for memberships and purchases. This is only true for iOS. Anfroid users have no price changes. Also as far as I know, this won't affect existing supporters using iOS either.

So, if you're an iOS user and are planning to join, that's something to keep in mind.

Just Apple doing Apple things :-( So glad I don't use any of their products, feel bad for the people that will have to deal with this BS...

I swear, companies are really trying their hardest to alienate their users.

I'm on Android, but I pay through my desktop anyway.

So does this mean if I dare to go old school for purchases or subscriptions and handle all such transactions through a website on a (gasp!) computer, can I avoid the 30% rape and pillage fee while still using the app for simple content viewing purposes?

Don't even have to use a computer, just as long as you don't subscribe through the app. Mobile web should be totally fine. I'd rather Patreon just removed the option to subscribe from the app. That way there'd be no customer confusion about different prices being presented, and all creators would be on equal footing (creators who charge per creation can't take new subscribers through the app at all; Apple does not support that).
