Counterpoint - the channels I support on Patreon release videos only when they're good and ready. Completely fine with me, and I prefer a creator earn twice as much when they produce twice as many good videos. Also, creators deserve time off. Say a channel like Every Frame A Painting, that released 2 videos in its last 2 years of existence. Supporters had pledged $7k per video whenever they released it, but if it had been $7k per month, I can imagine some supporters feeling miffed two years later that they had paid for 'nothing'.
Right now, the barrier to pledging on Patreon is low. You don't need to worry about how many videos they're likely to make in the future or how often they'll release it. You don't need to audit your pledges to check if there are any channels that are simply collecting passive revenue. Pay per video and you'll get exactly what you pay for.
