Apple has set a new deadline of November 1, 2026 for all Patreon creators to switch from Patreon's legacy billing system to the App Store's in-app purchase system in the Patreon app on the iPhone and iPad, as reported by TechCrunch. Note: This image has been edited to include a pile of cash. Patreon is a platform where creators such as YouTubers can receive payments from fans, which can be a valuable revenue stream alongside ads and sponsorships.

    I didn’t think it would be such a stretch to say Coke > Pepsi but whatever bro. Apple is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy less intrusive and integrated into the American government than Google.

    Google may as well be state sanctioned with how much they’re integrated with American military and as American spyware. So if those are the only choices for most people then yeah, I’d absolutely defend Apple over Google.

    Don’t worry, I’ll catch the next bandwagon.

      You’ve successfully defended a trillion dollar company. In return Apple wants to Thank you for your service. Mr. Nobody.

      Now get back to your 9-5 job and keep fighting for the greater good.   Together we can defend Google , Microsoft apple Tesla and make this world a better place. Gayme on!!

      Love,

      Gaymer
