I would love to see a federal investigation into the claims here. Though, being aware of Patreon's previous activities of policing only one side of the political spectrum, unfairly and unjustifiably banning users despite not breaking TOS, I would not be surprised if it turned out to be true.

I cannot, in good conscience, continue to support such a horrendously corrupt and morally bankrupt corporation. I will be starting a My Mini Factory Tribes account at the end of the month in an attempt to further distance myself from Patreon.

My own subscription service, RC Cult, is currently up and running, available here

It functions in much the same way as Patreon but is more than just a paywalled blog. Automatic fulfilment of rewards directly to your inbox, blog posts, work-in-progress updates, a single discount code that is tied to your subscription and automatically updated to give you the highest discount during sales, synchronisation with Discord, it's all there.

I urge everyone to start abandoning Patreon and support your favourite artists elsewhere.

Patreon Denies Hosting Child Sexual Abuse Material Amid Security Team Cuts

Patreon is denying accusations that the site has been helping parents monetize sexualized images of their children. Patreon refuted the allegations amid more job cuts. Last week, the platform laid off five members of its security team. On Tuesday, Patreon then announced it was slashing another 80 jobs, reducing its headcount by 17%, citing the economic downturn.

Good point. I will discontinue with Patreon and join the Cult next month. :-)
