Thank You! & Some Clarification
Added 2024-08-14 20:46:25 +0000 UTCDear Junk-Store Patreons,
We wanted to say a massive thank you to you all! It has been heartwarming to have people we don't know believe in us and support this project! Everything we have received via Patreon and Ko-fi has gone directly back into the maintenance, enhancement and development of Junk-Store.
The two of us wanted to reach out to you all regarding a few things that have recently been brought to our attention.
Firstly, we have had some feedback from the community around the Gog extension support and its availability.
We want to make it clear that you do not need to continue to support the project via a monthly subscription in order to use the Gog extension. Once you have downloaded the script and installed it, it is yours to keep and use forever. We cannot take it away from you or remove this functionality from the Junk-Store plugin.
Due to having a large number of people sign up and cancel we assumed, incorrectly, that everyone was aware they could do this. While we greatly appreciate your support, we don't want you to feel obligated to continue your monthly subscription. If you are worried that by cancelling your subscription you will lose this functionality, you won't. We want to make that explicitly clear; the script is yours for continued personal use if you choose to cancel or downgrade your subscription.
Due to confusion to new useres around whether or not you need to sign up to a monthly subscription to get it, we have utilised a new Patreon feature where you can have paid posts. The Gog extension is now available in the newly activated shop. The cost is higher than signing up as a Trailblazer then cancelling due to higher shop fees ($6 instead of $5). Like with everything, added fees are a killer. You can use either method to get the Gog extension, but if you sign up as a Trailblazer (even if you cancel straight away) you also get access to the 'Cloud Saves' script. Keep in mind cloud saves is unsupported so use at your own risk.
Secondly, our dev has been working long hours these past months on Junk-Store. So please rest assured that those of you who are monthly supporters, we are working away at making Junk-Store bigger and better! We are truly thankful for your continued belief in and support of this project. We have some big news on the horizon with some amazing features and functionality being added, so stay tuned.
Those of you who have been long-time supporters and/or those of you who wish to continue to support the project, we will have something special for you as a way of saying thank you.
Also don't forget if you ever have any issues or questions please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We are new to all this, so if something is bothering you or isn't clear please let us know.
Thank you again,
The Junk-Store Team

Thank you for all your work, I think all the options are completely reasonable for the value received (especially, that the base version is still free)
