[Rant]If you use a certain website to share patreon posts...

REMOVE YOURSELF FROM THE GENE POOL.
The website which shall not be named, allows people who subscribe to a patreon to share all posts from that creator to anyone for free, thus robbing the content creators of some much needed income.
Many of the posts are behind a few dollar paywall, are people that petty they want to deny an artist a few dollars in exchange for seeing cool things sooner?
I subscribe to quite a few patreon creators, and the pricing change wasn't done in greed for patreon wanting more money, they changed the fees so the content creators get more in the end. Sure we the subscriber eat a bit extra here, but it's to cover the fees of handling all the transactions, hosting the sites, and bringing it to the subscribers.
If people are that pissed at patreon, take it up with them, stop robbing content creators.
