Currently working through their new one, reading all the legal stuff on it and going through approvals. All hope is not lost, but even once this is sorted, it's still a huge blow and much less revenue compared to Humble's original direct system. Sigh.

Got approved on the new one, still have to work through signing the legal stuff, but new links are live. Let's see how it goes. Although the links are blocked right away by ublock since it's an external service *sigh*.

My paranoid browser plugins won't let me use the new affiliate links, but I upped my Patreon subscription to the Supporter Plus level to compensate. Not that I even remember when I last bought something from Humble. Anyway, hope that helps.

Thank you so much! And to everyone else who ups <3

Annoying indeed. Looks like Humble wanted more money and decided to take it from the partner program. Considering the audience of GOL and their stance on privacy and security, I concur with your prediction that this will take a sizeable chunk out of it as I highly doubt most people will play ball with such parties.

I personally wouldn't mind if you upped the plus a bit as well.

Joined the Patreon, thank you for your hard work Liam. The fact that they didn't even bother contacting the partners property... Humble Bundle has been going downhill for some time now

They were already on the way down when IGN bought them in 2017.

Humble indie bundle 19 was the last bundle I got there, back in 2018. Have there been any core bundles (i.e.: native linux, drm-free) since then?
