Comment on Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App
0_o7@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 week agoIt’s always getting fleeced with you guys and being fine with slightly less fleecing, when that is just a way to entice and reach a point where they can monopolize the market and fleece like the big dogs.
And then a new company with slightly less fleecing appears, with board members from previous company.
Rinse and repeat.

I understand your view and sympathize deeply but there is a lot wrong in the world today and if I have to divert energy somewhere to try and change something, Patreon’s 10/90 split is at the bottom of the list for me at the moment. Regular working class people aren’t getting that good of a deal at the jobs they work at. I’m not even talking 90/10, just getting their .01% of the profits in a 1000 person org for their contribution would probably be life changing.
You are right but our reference points are different.
