And it looks like the screaming was too much to ignore. They've backed off, publicly apologized, and said they'll move forward with what they SHOULD have done from the first, which is to talk to creators and see what sort of changes they can make to solve the problems the "move fees to patrons and increase them" was "intended" to solve. Which I still kind of suspect is that they really want the $1 tiers to start going away.
