(UPDATE) PLEASE DO NOT SUB FROM THE IOS VERSION OF THE PATREON APP

moving to the matter in hands, the apple payment processing is an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE for content creators like myself. it takes up to 75 DAYS to process each payment you make through an IOS version of the patreon app, not only that but you're also getting screwed by the 25% apple fee so please subscribe from your Safari/Browser of preference and then use the patreon app for viewing content, never subscribe from the app itself.
this is also the reason why I've disabled new sales of ALL the paid comics/bundles I recently listed here on patreon, I've noticed that a lot of you are buying them from the IOS app and now I have a huge balance of payments waiting 75 days to get processed, buyers will still be able to access the content they've purchased but no new sales will be done on patreon, you can still buy said content from the itchio main page or payhip, I think it was a mistake to sell that content here on patreon considering that the apple tax thing is so broadly used.
I will also refund ANY new subscription that is made through the IOS version of the patreon app and DM the subscriber asking them to re-sub through their internet browser or a different non-Apple device, because even if the subscriber does not re-subscribe, I'd rather lose a sub than allowing Apple to charge them an extra fee and make me wait 75 days for it.
