Patreon Isn't Great For Artists (why I’m leaving)

I've had some problems with Patreon ever since I launched my page last year, and I finally decided to leave the platform. My page will be un-launched at the end of this year, and I hope to start fresh on Discord, of all things!

The nature of building a community behind a paywall makes Patreon a difficult platform to get engagement on. Unfortunately, that's a really important part of being an artist and a content creator-- getting feedback from your audience on what's working and what's not.

Compare that to Discord, a platform literally MADE for having conversations, and the difference is like night and day.
