You had to scroll through a lot on your linked site to get to the part that you copied… It is not a service, it is more of a donation. Hence the name “Patron” I assume.
Comment on From the GOG newsletter: "A note about your GOG Patrons subscription"

As a Patron, you’ll get access to our dedicated community Discord server, featuring fun gaming-related activities and exclusive video content, plus special recognition across GOG in the form of unique badges and mentions on GOG Preservation Program game pages. Perks may grow or change over time, but we’ll always communicate them clearly before you sign up.
I can’t imagine GOG is losing much

Yeah, they’re so great for… not charging their monthly donation subscription twice?
I’m pretty sure I knew that already. The other guy said they got a month “for free,” which begs the question “what are you getting?”

Nothing material in the sense that you imply. Access to the community, that’s it.

Doesn’t change the fact that it’s a decent move. “Sorry guys we didnt bill you when expected so now we just wont bill you at all until the next interval”.
