Comics MATTER

Six books go out this week and another two are almost complete, but I won't launch their crowdfunding campaigns until the print file is complete. But I couldn't connect to IGG all of yesterday when I was trying to check out a new campaign. Is the alleged "Shadow-banning" still happening? Are there other technical difficulties for the site? Should I switch to Kickstarter? Or should I use both IGG and Kickstarter as some people do?

Honestly, the worst thing I can think of recently in the world of comics was DC bringing Identity Crisis back into canon. Comparatively better than the worst thing 5yrs ago.

Did YouTube change the voting system cause when I clicked on it, just showed an X and check mark, won’t show you which got the most votes, is it just me?

It'd be good to have a presence on Kickstarter just in case IGG continues having problems, Maybe do a smaller project on both sites to test the waters of managing the same campaign on two different sites.

What ever happened to Camilla Zhang

EVS and Shane say there is no more IGG shadow-banning. I would use IGG and KS if you're promoting on the other shows; otherwise, it doesn't matter; your audience will go wherever you tell them to go.

Both, if you can. Always have a contingency plan.
I’m cool with either or both, really. I have a slight preference for indiegogo, but it’s not that crucial and you gotta do what you gotta do.
Unfortunately IGG is still doing shadowbans, so it might be a todd up. I personally would do both, and possibly fundmycomic site as well; but that's me. Do what you think will work out best for YOU.
I just got an email from IGG that they were changing a bunch of TOS stuff, maybe that was it? I haven't logged in in the creator side since 2023, maybe they want you to check a box somewhere
The more eyes on it the better, so use both.
I clicked IGG but it checked KS for me so I'd be wary of results. Just a heads up.
I only use Indiegogo.
