  They have left, but been explicitly clear about there being no real alternative, and that there’s no immediate cure coming from them any time soon. In effect, they’ve stopped accepting donations on purely ideological ground. While that’s certainly admirable, they are well off enough to be able to afford it. Most patreon-based content creators probably aren’t.

    Well Peterson and others have switched over to Donorbox. Not quite the same thing, but they still take donations.

    He has discussed building an alternative several times, and as recently as yesterday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfQZcpaBqo4&t=175s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfQZcpaBqo4&t=175s

      Sure. But it’s not here now. It’s not a viable alternative to patreon for people who wishes to leave today. So until that is all sorted out, content-creators are stuck with what they have.
