Fanbox Changes
Added 2022-12-01 17:06:48 +0000 UTCYou might have heard about some policy changes happening on Fanbox that impact lewd artists like myself. Namely, the following -
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Furthermore, the rules or policies of Brand Protection for Card Networks transactions for content that is patently offensive, unethical, or promote criminal activity; such as, by way of example and not limitation:
・Sexual exploitation of a minor
・Incest
・Bestiality
・Rape (or any other non-consensual sexual behavior)
・Non-consensual mutilation of a person or body part
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This comes from an email I received a couple weeks ago, and as you may have noticed, that list covers about... 90% of the art I make? Yeah.
Effectively, this means that I can't really use Fanbox anymore without running afoul of their new rules (Thanks PayPal!), so I intend to just shut the place down when these rules take effect, rather than try to dance around and evade the new rules. I'll be looking for another place to set up shop, for people who can't use SubscribeStar for whatever reason.
Minds.com is the first choice that comes to mind, since they have a subscription feature that bypasses paypal completely. If anyone has a sugestion on another Patreon-like service that I could switch to, I'd love to hear about it.
Until then, here's a list of sites I'm currently using for my uploads, so you can keep up to date and see where this goes:
