Why can't I log in to Patreon using my Apple ID on multiple devices?

I get an 'invalid request' no matter what browser I use, no matter which device I use (and I have tried my Mac, my iPhone, and my iPad), and no matter how I reduce protections. I simply can no longer log in to Patreon using my Apple credentials. Likely is a Patreon issue, but they are zero help, and I've tried. I was logging in perfectly fine just last week with no changes to my software. Would sure love to know what has happened. This may be beyond the Apple's purview, but it's mighty frustrating, as I my Patreon account is tied exclusively to my Apple login.


If it's something simple, great.

Thanks. Trying, appreciate the response. I'm sure it's some unintended conflict between Apple and Patreon, and there may not be an immediate solution. I can say this: I am so glad I did not surrender everything to relying on my Apple account. Technology is not magic. This is a minor problem, granted; thank goodness it is not something more mission critical, or I'd just be screwed. I fully understand the logic at work behind this stuff, but it just isn't practical, for anyone, and I wish I had signed up to Patreon more traditionally and personally managed by *me*, not software negotiating with itself. It's a huge part of the reason AI is worthless for anything that is really important. Sure wish Apple would realize its core user base are not luddites and understand this stuff just as well, if not in some instances, batter than, their modern engineers. 🤷🏻‍♂️
