I can understand your point here. What about the whole "milking supporters" cause usually puts me off are this few points:OK, just a simple request guys? Please stop. If I want to read something like this current conversation I would read youtube comments, reddit posts, or something of the like.
- Often they don't support the dev themselves. As we are on a pirate site this is normal and I have nothing against it.
- They advised what I should do and shouldn't with my own recourses. I have chosen that I support this dev. And I'm absolutely aware that my money can be wasted. But I've chosen it and it is my and only my decision alone to make.
- They accuse the devs for milking, but and at least on Patreon that's not possible at all. If a creator doesn't hold up to my requirement as a support I can withdraw at any given time. This system don't have a minimum duration.
- Often they indirect "profits" from this "milking scheme" as some devs operate on a capitalism aspect of work and if they don't earn enough money to see a future for them, they would abandoned their current idea.
