    There are creators I follow who don’t make videos full time because the money isn’t there yet for them, but they make good videos. Sponsoring them on Pateron helps them financially, but doesn’t help them grow. if I can signal that this is good content and more people should see it, that helps the creator out and encourages more of that type of content to be created.

      Just like I thought. You think it’s your civic duty to train Google’s algorithm in the hopes that it may favor the stuff you like.

      You’re a model consumer. I’ll bet you pause the ads when you leave the room.

        Yeah, you know, you’re right. Fuck me for wanting the people who make good content to be paid and recognized for their hard work.
