Update on Patreon Changes
Added 2024-10-22 10:16:43 +0000 UTCThank you all for your feedback on the last post on timer reactions. We truly appreciate everyone’s input and encourage you to continue sharing your raw and honest thoughts as you did :)
Initially, we were quite firm about implementing this change. However, we’ve come to realize that it’s unfair to offer timer watch-along reactions when some viewers may be using mobile devices that don’t support syncing features. We understand that the whole process can be very frustrating and tedious, and we also want to cater for those who can’t split the screen with another device or aren’t able to access the anime in their country. We want everyone to enjoy our content without feeling excluded.
As a compromise, we will provide reactions with reduced opacity and a watermark. We truly wish we could showcase the anime in its entirety, but we never want our videos to be seen as an alternative to the actual media; rather, we intend them as a review. For those who prefer the best viewing experience, we will include a timer for syncing. Above, we've shown a sneak peek of what this looks like, along with a preview of tomorrow’s Episode 6 reaction 👀.
We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments! Otherwise, we plan to maintain this format until the end of AOT.
Thanks again for your support!
P.S. As per requests, we will make this change starting from 2x8 (above won't actually be applicable for 2x6) :)

2024-10-22 13:51:17 +0000 UTCThis is 100x better than the watch-along format. Hopefully it works. Also, I saw a lot of comments suggesting alternate upload options and I do agree with possibly giving stream labs a shot or if possible, directly uploading to Patreon. But thanks for listening to the feedback. And 10/10 work edging us with that picture to whoever edits the videos.

2024-10-22 13:43:51 +0000 UTCReally appreciate the kind words and thanks for supporting us ❤️ Unfortunately don’t think streamable would help our case since it’s not really about the platform, we simply don’t just want to blatantly steal work and showcase it. Thanks for the suggestion tho 🙏

2024-10-22 13:34:29 +0000 UTCIt's actually rare to see patreon guys actually listen to the inputs that's so sweet of you guys thanks. I could maybe recommend using streamable I have a friend who uses it and it's quite good for them but they are not is Australia so I don't know either but love your reactions ✨☺️

2024-10-22 12:48:50 +0000 UTCYe most likely since we don’t want to risk anything, we’ll see how it goes :)
Ralaz
2024-10-22 12:17:11 +0000 UTCI see fair enough, would that also mean the opacity change is necessary since the watermark is there, obviously it’s no biggie, just curious.

2024-10-22 11:19:31 +0000 UTCWe noticed that channel doesn’t show the top part of the screen tho really, so although we have the watermark, we do show basically the whole screen as something to make up for it
Ralaz
2024-10-22 11:17:13 +0000 UTCI will save myself for the full 2x6; I won't come near the sneak peek above :p Thanks for taking our wishes into consideration, you guys are the best!

2024-10-22 10:55:38 +0000 UTCReally appreciate you guys listening and considering viewers ( I like how you went with the Triple take suggestion ;), and additionally allowing us to view 2x6 in its full glory XD. I also do thing perhaps you could get away without the water mark, but who am I to say anything. Good job guys.

2024-10-22 10:22:59 +0000 UTCI never thought I'd be edged by 4 dudes, let alone this much! nah fr tho, while the change in general doesn't affect me in the greater scheme of things, props for keeping it inclusive!

2024-10-22 10:22:15 +0000 UTCThis is definitely much better than the previous solution and much appreciated reconsidering your options
