Content

After 5 years of having 0 issues and giving them money every year, Vimeo just decided now my content was problematic and banned me, deleting years of content I've uploaded for Patreon. So that's cool, thanks Vimeo. 5 years of content just gone. I'm kinda at a loss here. You'll notice that my recent timelapses are uploaded via koofr since they've been getting dinged by their (likely new AI powered) moderation system, but basically 98% of my timelapses and animations are inaccessible now, and I can't really just go back and update every single Vimeo post since 2017.  Would be nice to just be able to upload videos directly to Patreon (Score 1 for Subscribestar), but since I'm an 18+ creator I am blocked from that option. Quite frankly I'm very upset by this development. I'm very sick of having to find workarounds for shit that I should just have regular access to. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, everyone. I'll figure something out. From now on videos will be uploaded to Koofr. I'll probably update my recent animations as well since that's manageable. As for timelapses, that might be a hair-pulling process to fix. I dunno. Fuck man.

Payment processor tyranny strikes again... Sorry to hear dude.

FightingJoe

It's happening everywhere!

You hate to see it hopefully you can find a way to get past this

Patriot_Pills

I'm really sorry to hear that. Things have become so frustratingly strict for artists lately for no good reason

Pyrobot

I'm really sorry to hear that, man

Man of madness

The noose is closing with this nonsense. The amount of options content creators have is still in decline. Eventually there's gonna be a monopoly and they'll probably raise the prices too. I hope things recover..

If it helps, Dropbox and Mega seem to still be working fine. That sucks that other places do this crap everywhere these days.

I have been following ya for a while and became a subscriber to your patreon since earlier this year. but have you looked into a discord?

DoktorPervert

I hope Odyssee and Newgrounds prove to be more reasonable alternatives.

Mr Peculiar

That's not the issue. It's the fact that I'm running out of options and now hundreds of posts are now broken links

Just some advice 1st I’d ask if you can have “temporary access back” just to get the videos you’re missing. It’s not likely they’ll do it, but it can’t hurt to try asking. 2nd, I’d probably invest in a cloud storage like Google Drive, MEGA or something, a lot of other NSFW Patreon creators use Cloud Storage for stuff like this, some say they’ve had similar issues in the past and Cloud Storage helps. Most of them use Google Drive or Mega.

I wish all the payment processor CEO's a very *things I cannot say on a public government searchable website*

You rock man, sending love and support. Sorry to hear

CrimsonFlyer

Should people continue to support you via Patreon or through another pay site like Subscribestar or sum else?

Lepons

Fuck

For what it's worth, the stuff that's actually been uploaded to patreon is there still there, just the embeds are dead. So you could re-upload them somewhere using those files, if you were interested in doing that, but....updating all those embeds....

I can't imagine how hard that must be. I'm behind you 100%. Do whatever you need to do.

flou

sorry to hear, my video was also deleted, but I was lucky that I decided not to upload there, vimeo went totally downhill -.-"

Siiiiiiiigh... that sucks, dude. From all angles. No warning or nothin', just rug pull? That's some shit.

wing hero

you can use itch.io. i think thy fixed there credit card thing now so there good. i dont know if you can still use it like that but you can give it a shot. just put your videos in a folder by date. i cant remember the other way to do it tho sorry

Stache_Man

You should be able to access the discord server if you link your Patreon account to discord. Settings -> More -> Connected apps Unless you were talking about suggesting to post the files themselves on discord.

Stache_Man

Don't worry everyone, I have an existing backup of most of the videos in the highest quality. I've already shared them with him. The only problem now is to figure out where else to put the livestreams. If koofr works out without issues, then that'll be the new platform to access the livestreams and such.

Riko_Oni

Yeah but make it a special Tier
