Looks like Humble Bundle removed their current partner program: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/forum/topic/6244/
Confirmed: They shut it this month, so our Humble links no longer do anything. Waiting to see if their new external partner will approve my account. So until then, Humble does nothing for GOL.
😭15❤1
To be clear for people not clicking into the above link: this Humble Bundle stuff is a big blow. Even if we get on their new external program, the rates are a lot lower overall, and you can't change sliders to give GOL more (which I know plenty of people did). So pretty please sub to Patreon if you're not already: https://www.patreon.com/liamdawe 🙏
I don't want to be too much of a downer, but this really is a huge blow to finances.
