In the continuing journal saga, anyone here using Bear [bear-writer.com]?
Possibly overkill, but looks interesting.
Had to abandon the latest Gravy podcast because the levels were so all over the place. Pity; it seemed pretty interesting.
@matigo I've just been looking at Square and Stripe, and Stripe may be marginally ahead. Did you consider Stripe?

@ukhaiku Currently looking at a roll-your-own. It is a WP site, so with Stripe payments (and PayPal) and a couple of plugins I think I could do a reasonable job, leaving Patreon as it is.
For me, it has to beg per episode rather than per time period. Do you know whether that works with Drip?
I haven't jumped ship yet, but I have sent my Patrons an email and I am thinking hard about alternatives.
@jws My friend aaronpk has a thing called quartzdb. It’s the presentation and search that has me stumped. Would also be a very fun learning project. If I wanted to do tags and things and pull in weather and all that, I would be better off paying.

@joanna Yeah, always with the bloated feature creep. I was reading about an approach to flat files as databases that makes me almost want to try and roll my own. But it would not be pretty.
