Yesterday I discovered a Patreon page that is actually selling stolen content.
Someone sent me their Facebook page where I could see a post about the guy literally mentioning that he'll be sending my whole January content (16Gb+) by next week to all his patrons. Including his Patreon link in the post so there is no mistake about the page. He also posted pics I haven't posted publicly so I know it's not some bad joke.
Now I have of course sent the screenshot of this to Patreon, including the fact the only tier on their Patreon has for description "Sending 8 photosets of girl each sunday", as well as a DMCA, and they have been doing nothing. They suspended the page for two days to "invesetigate" just to come back to me telling me that the guy handling the page told them this isn't what he's doing. Since when can you just dodge the consequences of infringing literal Terms of Service of the website you use just by "telling them it's not the truth". The proofs should be speaking for themselves. They re-enabled the page and that's it. My content is being stolen.
I'm forced to take a lawyer now. Which is costly. Just because they can't take their own responsibilities and actually apply their own ToS
This is absolutely horrible to see as a creator, and I personally can't stand it. My website will soon be ready and as soon as it is, I will handle only 3-4 months more with Patreon and leave this shithole burying creators.
I cannot stand right now the fact I'm dependent of this place which has been spitting on me since months. How much disrespect, insecurity and insults can one handle nearly on a daily basis coming from its income source? I'm self-employed, this shouldn't be the case.
I will propose (For more pricey than here tho!) my HD sets on OnlyFans for tips. That way, people can get the daily lewd content and tip to pick what they want. It wont include the new sets, only past sets.
It will be easier for me to manage this way, as customs are taking too much time on OnlyFans, even if i've enjoyed doing those, I can't keep going. And as Patreon is being horrible, and decreasing since august, I need to find other solutions to fund my projects.
I know some of you actually enjoy the platform, or don't mind it, but for creators this is hell on earth. Full of bugs, full of bullshit updates that are hurting everyone's income, which is also making me feel insecure in here.
They don't even have any way to automate the sending of rewards since YEARS! This is literally the first thing I asked my web team to do because I'm SICK OF BEING A SECRETARY.
Not to mention the amount of people spamming me because I don't answer instantly or send their rewards fast enough. It makes me feel horrible and contribute to walking towards a burnout.
Overall, I'm just tired of this. Patreon is a shithole that I want to drop off from. This place has a fake storefront where they pretend to help people make their dream true, which is true until you realize they don't care about the well being of the creators and just milk their cash off.
Tl:Dr; I'm soon done with Patreon, my website wont have Paypal because they don't support adult content, so get a credit card if you ever want to keep seeing my content after the incoming 5-6 months.
Love y'all
