- notatoad 5y agocoupled with the "we are a B2B solution" statement, i think they're trying to shake down patreon, not the individual creators - it sounds like vimeo wants patreon to start sending them money.
- apotheon 5y agoThis also seems like a great way to get everyone to leave. If what I wanted was a B2B platform, I wouldn't choose one with a history of suddenly changing its policies and only giving one week to catch up. In fact, it's often much more difficult for a larger business to move that quickly than an independent user.
- bobitsaboy 5y agoBingo!
- marcosdumay 5y ago"We want you to leave" is a pretty ok thing for them to say. "You have a week to leave" is not. It's sleazy and unprofessional, and it's a signal that it's best for anyone to avoid them in the future.
- kingkawn 5y agothey probably don’t want to be known as forcing users out unilaterally, so a false offer becomes the diplomatic move, now backfiring from public exposure.
- Ekaros 5y agoDepends on the contract in place. If they have a clause allowing termination in weeks time then it's entirely professional.
- marcosdumay 5y agoIf they negotiated that clause, yes, it's professional. If they hidden it there, no, it's not.
