Should I migrate to Subscribestar?
Added 2021-03-19 08:52:13 +0000 UTCBetween the crackdown and the rampant piracy, Patreon seems like a less and less viable option... do you already support creators over Subscribestar?

Is there a downside to having both other than some extra management? I personally don't see myself shifting over platforms, no real reason other than I can't be bothered to be honest unless a significant portion of people I follow also migrate. That being said, would it be an option for you to run both? Would allow you to keep your current following here and not worry about the follower loss from migrating, but at least having the other option for those who are willing to migrate/already follow people there. Bit of security as well if worst case scenario happens and Patreon gives you the boot and people will at least know where to find you if forced to leave Patreon
