A lot of people are unclear why so many #PatreonCreators are quite so upset at the recent news about #Patreon. This is largely because what is being reported in the news is the business with the 30% Apple tax, which only affects iOS users.

The thing creators are upset about is that Patreon is SHUTTING DOWN two of its three offerings. Creators who were using one of those two are now screwed. How screwed they are depends on how and why they were using the services being discontinued, and ranges from "extremely inconvenienced" right on up to "existential threat to their creative endeavor".

One of the services Patreon offered – the one I use – basically has no alternative. None of the other crowdfunding platforms support it.

Indeed, a lot of creators were stuck using Patreon *because* it did things differently from other crowdfunding platforms, and it is BECAUSE it did things differently, that Apple is requiring them to give up those services.
