RE: OS X Catalina Encouraged me to stop Pirating Photoshop.

I think the Exclusivity Offers ought to be unique but intertwined.

Patreon
Kickstarter
Gumroad PDFs
HIVE
ETH

There ought to be a strong argument for people to support my work on any of those platforms.

Designing a unique reason why -- suited to each platform, and consequentially deciding which platforms will not receive those benefits is a challenge.

If I could separate and manage and update accounts so that Kickstarter Backers and Patrons and Gumroad Contributors, and HIVE people and ETH people could all make contributions on their respective platforms, in their respective currencies, for NSFW Livestream access [for example], -- I might be interested in making that happen -- but the accounting would be a little bit bothersome, and then the bill collecting would just be murderous.

That really is the one thing that Patreon offers that the others simply don't.

If you're a Patron -- You're hooked for a contribution each month, untill you decide not to be.

No other platform offers that kind of consistency.

Ultimately, that's a valuable thing, so I need to encourage that.

Different platforms need to be managed differently, based on their strengths, and have unique value propositions based on those same strengths.
