Sure, but Patreon is for a small group of people. Meaning, the mass audience goes there because a small group of creators told them that's how they can support them.
If that small group of creators finds a better alternative, and tells their audience to support them at the alternative rather than Patreon, they will go there.
SubscribeStar was enjoying a good amount of success as a Patreon alternative once a few users who got banned move to it, (but then PayPal cut SubscribeStar off).
Only time can tell.
- zarkov99 8y agoIf the payment processors are really who is behind the Patreon/SubscribeStar debacle, which certainly seems to be the case, then short of bitcoin, which is a horrible solution, how can a Patreon competitor do any better?
- nkkollaw 8y agoNo idea! Maybe they'll be a middleman for Bitcoin. We have to wait and see.
