most pages use the same bluer effect as far as I know.. but here's one example :P

I found a "block" function on inspect but no way to edit this "block" comment..

If youll look at the developer tools at networks tab, you'll see a request to
patron.com/api/posts

This api returns the user posts with pagination
The blurred images comes from this api as well as the non-blurred images.

So there is no blurred effect on the frontend.

If u need any more help tag me!

I think that Patreon is not that dumb to deliver original (non-blurred) images to non-subscribed users over the API.

IDK.. there used to be a bypass for subscription posts on Patreon until 2018-2019.. maybe there are still some ways to bypass stuff on it that didn't get patched out yet.. but again IDK..

Actually I don't need you to do code.. I need you to manage me
I'll do the scraping, you will tell me what to scrape.

Unfortunately there is no way of 'uncovering' the blur, since the image is blurred itself, meaning there is no unblurred image, from the Patreon URL you sent, this is the direct image they're using to thumbnail one of the posts:

Spoiler: Image

Notice how the entire thing is blurred, what Patreon does is take the original image and put a blur effect over it, displaying that image to none paying users.

Sorry to break your heart buddy

is there a way to know how many pics/files will be unlocked in these posts once you sub to the correct tier?

to know if this is just a preview post or full on sets..
