i've been keeping an eye on patreon's mentions on twitter and it really looks like they just shrugged and left the office for the weekend while lots of people are still complaining they haven't been paid, can't retry their failed payments, or can't access the content they have been charged for.
i just... if this isn't an all-hands-on-deck emergency i don't know what is. like sorry but if your job is making sure people get paid reliably, you shouldn't actually get to just walk out on that? what is going on over there!!!
