Patreon is a platform where creators such as YouTubers can receive payments from fans, which can be a valuable revenue stream alongside ads and sponsorships.
Fuck patron. Fuck you Tim Apple. Fuck you both
What’s wrong with Patreon? They advertise a 10% fee. It may be a little more complicated than that but 10% seems pretty reasonable considering the services they offer.
Patreon stopped being benevolent years ago when they changed their pricing model to exploit small donors more.
Send money directly using Monero. Avoid as much ‘overhead’ as possible.
I’d love to but it’s a chicken and egg thing. Regular people don’t understand bitcoin let alone monero. On top of that, you still have fees for converting from a currency to monero and again from monero to a currency, so there’s still a middle man :/
