I am still trying to wrap my head around when Patreon went full moral authority. I used to use Patreon several years ago for a two content creators that I once followed on IdiotTube ( You Tube) but Patreon booted them off for being right of a center. They were not even far right, they are actually classical liberals. Now Patreon has gone full fascist!Everybody knows that's bullshit, but my page has been closed for 3 days. Let's say I lost 10% of my monthly income if they extend every suscription for those 3 days. A small income dev can't file in court for that 10%, even less in another country. I wouldn't even do that if they closed the page indefinitely because I'm sure I would need years of lost income to pay for a decent lawyer in the US.
That's their main weapon. They can close pages with impunity because no one will denounce them.
