So, I started switching off Patreon to Subscribestar after Sargon got kicked off the platform. It took quite a while to do, because SubscribeStar had been a *tiny* platform before hand, and the hard left conspired to get Stripe to stop serving as their payment processor, but they didn't cave, found an alternative, and have been expanding since.
I lost about half the monthly income I got from Patreon by switching to Subscribestar, but I saw it as a matter of principle. It's not quite as easy a platform to use as Patreon, nor does it have as many features but it does work, and the people who run it haven't tried to pull any BS on us. I think they're quite aware that the reason they went from miniscule to decent-sized is because of political refugees, and they respect that.
Bluntly, put, Patreon needs to pay the price for their malfeasance, and if they fold, the market will be better for it when people spread out to other platforms afterwards. It will be rough for a number of people in the short run though.
