The incentive doesn't have to be meaningfully extra work though, many of the creators I follow just have the patreon incentive be stuff like getting access to videos a week early, getting access to a discord to hangout in or if they're streamers, having one of their streams each month limited to supporters.

But on top of that, I have never really thought much about the incentives anyway, I join the patreons/youtube memberships of the creators I really enjoy because I enjoy them. For the vast majority of them I don't even pay attention to if they're delivering on their incentives as long as their regular content continues to be enjoyable.

Appreciate the insight. Something like this is something I have been debating and hearing this is great.
