What if Google bought Patreon and integrated it directly into YouTube?
- thot_experiment 3y agoThat would suck but still better. The problem here is that I am not going to give my money to someone as a result of advertising if I can help it, be it being advertised to, or paying someone to not force advertisements on me. My primary beef with goog is that I consider the entire concept of advertising to be bad and corrupt and I want to do my best to not support it at every turn.
- sofixa 3y agoThey already have that, it's called "membership" where you join a channel, potentially get early access to videos and other perks, in exchange for money. Same format as Patreon, only native in YouTube and video-only. For what it's worth, I know of only one creator that actually uses that over Patreon.
