EschaShitology +1 It was so annoying. Translators offering 1-5 chapters a week at max, but up to 7-14 or in some cases even 20 chapters bonus for donation sitting anywhere from 20-30$ (rarely so low) to 60-80$ each, and they actually made the money to release them, those that didn't despite having over 200 chapters saved up would still keep a 1-5chapter a week schedule.
I love the patreon feature as well, since I can support translators and still get bonus chapters, yet it is not required to donate to enjoy stable releases, but I also hate it because the bonus chapters aren't stored on qidian, but rather google docs most the time. I'd like it if patreon goals also released bonus chapters on our novel occasionally as reading in google docs is not as comfortable as this qidian reader.
