This tool mostly feels like it'll help the popular people get more popular.
I'm really not sure how I feel about knowing that I'm currently the 3077th-best-earning creator on Patreon. (Although that number is kind of deceptive as I'm paid per creation, which can vary from 1/month to 8/month. On good months I'm more like #595, although I'm sure there are other per-creation folks who make more things per month and/or get more per thing.)
- Zikes 11y agoLooking at just the home page, sure, but if I bookmarked the New in Games page[1] and check back occasionally I can be reasonably assured to find lesser known creators in a category I'm interested in.

- Axsuul 11y agoThat was definitely not my sole intention, which is why we have different filters on the page. Each creator is updated nightly so as I gather more data, the "Trending" page will be more accurate. Would love to hear your suggestions however on how I can get the unknowns more known. I have a cousin on Patreon who's extremely talented but struggles to get a fanbase so I know how you feel!
- Zikes 11y agoHave you considered setting up alerts? E.g. sending an email when a trending new Creator in the Games category appears.
- Axsuul 11y agoNope I have not and that is a great idea. Would definitely need to refine "Trending" to something that is giving useful data before implementing this however. Thanks for the suggestion and keep em' coming! /adds feature suggestion to Trello board
