I have always wondered, why do so many people back on Patreon instead of Subscribestar? Is it just that Patreon is the biggest and got there first? Just they have a history of censorship and questionable practices (like the handing over of data regarding the Canadian trucker thing); are there any tangible benefits that make people choose Patreon?
Patreon has more options for paying
Also, to add here, I believe that some payment processors (e.g., Stripe, PayPal, etc) may even decline processing payments due to "murky" and or questionable political disagreements with the beneficiaries that the donations go through. This can occur on either Patreon and/or SS.
But in some cases, SS might be the preferred option because as a digital content monetization platform, they have fewer restrictions, and therefore, are less regulated versus Patreon in comparison.
Moreover, some adult h-game content creators over on SS have reportedly received more percentage off their cut of the earnings versus Patreon. So some content creators may choose to naturally host their content on SS if they do not experience much of a loss per se through their monetary membership benefit entitlements via Patreon.
