I think in a lot of countries you can easily use things like Wise (which is objectively MUCH better than Paypal on every front I can think of), as well as all sorts of other wallet/middleman services (like AliPay/Wechat in China and wider Asia) that act as a "guard", if your issue is credit card information safety (though, your bank should have an option to always require authorization for any irregular payments...it's 2024 people).Imho the only thing that would REALLY stop people from transitioning to Subscribestar from Patreon, is the fact that you need a credit card and can't use paypal (this is a issue for me personally for example).
Like, why people even use PayPal anymore? It's a shitty service...always was.
Well, the amount of sleepers will be lower for some time...I assume about 20-30% of Patreons were sleepers that won't even know that something happened till they remember next year or something.Because the folks that kept up with Eromancer and the overall output so far and kept supporting, imho aren't likely to stop their support now out of the blue.
