Same issue on linux: Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS

Maybe some changes on the patron side?

Seems like they now have tcm cookie with json data in it which contains user response to "We use cookies" block.

It appears patreon is breaking RFC related to cookies by not putting json into "" block and .NET can't really handle it properly.

For now you can delete chromedata directory in the app directory and login again without pressing any buttons in the "We use cookies" block. Everything should work fine as long as that cookie isn't set by you making any choice there.

I don't understand how you mean here Alex. Just so I know. Does this solution still works or have Patreon been even harder to block access for this fix?

Because for me it's impossible to login to Patreon without any cookies, it need cookies to work now.

I would be happy if someone can explain how to fix this thing :D

Thank you!

@robban80swe he means, while logging in in the browser, dont press any button in the "we use cookies" window. just log in, press no other button. (dont forget to delete chromedata folder first)
