Every artist, performer and creator on Patreon is about to get screwed out of 30% of their gross revenue, which will be diverted to Apple, the most valuable company on the planet. Apple contributes nothing to their work, but it will get to steal a third of their wages. How is this possible? Enshittification.
Ah, like so. I thought you were referring to the article on the Patreon website with your initial comment, rather than the article in the post itself.
You’re right, the article is wrong. “Gross revenue” makes no sense.
