Patreon has changed their billing (Patreon)

Heya all

Patreon has changed the way subscriptions work. Now when you subscribe it's charged for signup and the monthly charge. This is likely to inform new people that happen to subscribe at the end of the month, so they're charged at once, instead of getting surprised when they're billed once again in the new month.

If you're an old subscriber this change won't apply to you, it only applies to newer subscribers.
