the thing about patreon is that, regardless of any concerns about their business practices re: changing fees, source of funding, etc etc, it is just miserable dogshit awful software to use. trying to fix payment methods and the site just Doesn't Load Pages more than half the time and when it does they're slow as hell. everything is locked behind js click events so i can't even open in a new tab, and changing anything drops you back to the home page where you have to go four pages deep again to do anything. hell on earth

i am stuck with a persistent "Your payment to [x] didn't go through" because, six months ago, i got a new debit card and forgot to change it immediately in patreon. it still has not attempted to charge these again despite me changing the payment method months ago. i have no idea how to even attempt to fix this because everything i would have considered (such as: cancelling and restarting my subscription manually) Doesn't Fucking Do Anything

Patreon works so fucking bad as a website, dude. I've hated it for so long but kept mine around because it's (just barely) done the job as a place to post project updates. Now that Opportunity's out I'm 100% shuttering it (after I spin up a proper gamedev sideblog on here)

Yeah, it's done that to me too. If you "retry payment" on every single line item that failed it will correctly pay that one and then bill on the next billing cycle.

Note that when you do that it sends individual transactions to your card, so your card can get locked for fraud when you do. I'd recommend doing a few a day until it's fixed. 😭
