Patreon is an American crowdfunding platform based in San Francisco which can be used by content creators as a business tool for creating subscription based services. Subscribers who support content creators using Patreon are referred to as "patrons".

Feeds

Patreon charges creators between 5 and 12% of the monthly revenue generated by Patrons in addition to payment processing fees.

Censorship

"Patreon also just punishes people for political speech that they don't like, being tools of the technocratic oppressive state."

Luke Rudkowski of WeAreChange
in a YouTube rant December, 2019

Patreon is known to take anything a user of their platform has said anywhere, ever, into account. Some off-hand remark in an interview or a joke in some obscure corner of the Internet is enough to get banned from Patreon.
