Consider the perspective of the "patreon" (funder). You choose maybe 5 creators you want to watch and fund. With Patreon you have a convenient place to do that - you're spoonfed new content and you enter your payment info to a single trusted third party, not each individual creator. I also assume there are great options for discovering new related content and creators. Disclaimer: I never used Patreon, I only assume that's how it works.
