Patreon should become a supporter of PeerTube development when Youtube axes Patreon platform use entirely.

YT now has channel "memberships" built in that mimic Patreon. Since it is integrated into YT you get a streamlined perks platform along with a special icon noting you are a "member" of the channel when commenting.

Patreon is part of the SV mafia.. They're just as bad w/ arbitrary censorship.

Bitcoin is a better use case for PeerTube imo.

Using Youtube for Patreon videos, generating costs for YT that don't have a revenue/monetization component.
