IMPORTANT UPDATES: New tiers, private RSS feed, merch and goals

Hello dear patrons!

I'm in the process of making some changes around here in the hopes of attracting more long-term supporters. YouTube is fraudulently unreliable and unfair in content distribution and I am done trusting the platform. Patreon is not a saint and has its problems but this is a start.

More tiers

I will introduce one lower tier ($2) and three higher tiers ($15, $25 and $35). These are crafting around merch and some new perks. I will introduce a Briar/Cwtch group where people could communicate with me directly in a more private way. This feature would be experimental so if it doesn't work, I'd have to figure out something else.

New merch

The poll decided that most of you are interested in a T-shirts/long sleeve shirts, stickers, hoodies and mugs. Therefore, new tiers will be introduced to allow you to pledge for different merch items. 

Private RSS feed

All patrons from the $5 tier and up will receive a private RSS feed in their email to listen to my podcast in their favorite podcast app. My Patreon-exclusive podcasts will no longer be uploaded as YouTube unlisted videos but will be in audio form only for a better experience. 

New goals

I changed two of my goals to reflect the needs of The Hated One project. When I reach 200 patrons, I will start building an infrastructure for The Hated One to decentralize my reliance on the big tech. When I reach 500 patrons, I will hire more personnel to help make more frequent videos at higher quality and production. Once my Patreon page reaches 1,000 members, I will be able to make independent documentary features.

That's for now. If anything new comes up, I will keep you updated! Any feedback is much appreciated! I am forever grateful for your gracious support!
