Maybe, but only if you compare it to those things. I support tons of people on patreon and other platforms and never have I once thought about comparing it to my Netflix subscription, it's just totally different. Netflix and co are a utility and you expect to pay low utility costs for it, but supporting a creator is something you do because you are excited and look forward to what they do next and their contribution to the world and more specifically your day. What are you more excited for, sitting down to your daily Netflix or getting the latest podcast/comic/picture from your favourite creator? Who will disappear if you don't support them and be lost forever?
