im sure many of you already saw the warning messages, looks like Patreon it's gonna be offline for a huge amount of hours, and i received a few contradictory messages from Patreon, one message says the maintenance will start november 27, others says november 26, anyways, if you see from 26 to 28 of november patreon its offline, now you know why.

now my question is, why it would take so long?, safety improvement, or big server migration?.

what you think?

As someone in IT, I have a few guesses as to what's up. You are right on server migration, particularly if they're moving everything from one infrastructure type to another. For example if they are moving it from a server they had in house to a virtualized server on the cloud that is a lot to do in terms of testing to be sure the jump to virtual doesn't cause issues they could be reworking their internal infrastructure as well. New file servers moving in, upgrading CPUs and replacing RAM. Some portions are not hotswappable so if it's a large server farm it could take a while there.

I agree with Renn, it may be innocuous, a simple matter of systems upgrade. Or, more sinsterly, a hunt for adult themed Patreons...
