Important Note: There are some more recent developments that occurred in the wake of the text below. Besides the recent changes described in this post, I decided to make the Home for Fiction apps Patreon-only content again. Yes, I admit it: I have been defeated. I was naive to think this could work, simply as a result of Disney-magic and people’s understanding. To put it plainly, I simply can’t afford to pay for the server resources required. It’s either this or nothing.
Everything below this point should be seen as a snapshot of history and might not reflect current reality.
You might have noticed some minor changes on Home for Fiction lately. Or then again, you might have not, and the only person reading this is me. Ironically enough, this very element (meta- time!) is part of the reason there have been such changes.
Among these recent changes, the most conspicuous must be the disappearance of comments and the lack of a link to the support page that used to decorate the header.
Moreover, if you’ve found this post coming from the common app interface (just try to visit any of the Home for Fiction apps), you have realized that all Home for Fiction apps are nowadays limited to a fixed number of users per day. Each user is also limited to a few boots per hour.
I want to explain all this – though, somewhat egotistically, not to you; the intended audience is I alone, as it has always been. Writing this post is only meant as a vehicle for putting my own thoughts in order and understanding something new. But if it’s informative to you, great!
