Anyone here uses Patreon?

Last edited Mon May 27, 2019, 09:09 PM - Edit history (1)

Looking at it for my YouTube channel. But not sure if it's something good or bad.
Anyone here have any experience with it? It seems it will make my YouTube into a full time thing, not like I don't have time.
But I would like some input on those that have experience in the field. So anyone here who have any experience with this? Any input is welcome.

They have 3 different ones to pick from. Think I'll go with the smallest one to start. The one where they take 5%+10¢. Hey, they got to make money too.

I get popular enough I'll do the bigger one where they help with branding. It would feel good to sell pro Democrat and homeless supporting shirts. Get that message out there.

Seems to be pretty legit -- just a small payment for a service. I rather like the idea, so I'd have no qualms about going with Patreon.
