the biggest shame on this is that until now I didn't know about the incoming change. patreon would just have charged me 20% more than any other month. I heard of it because 2 creators told their patron about it.... And I had to let got of 5 creators and it feels bad!

I imagine this has to do with efficiency, and many small pledges cost Patreon more to process. There are other ways of handling that, though, such as bundling them for CC/banking fee purposes, etc.

What the hell
@Patreon? You'll basically have most $1 and $2 subscriptions cancel. A larger percentage of LESS money while you take a larger cut doesn't seem sustainable for creators. Don't have creators explore other avenues of income. We'll follow them and you'll get no money.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

This increases my average pledge by 20%... That's a lot. Guess I'll have to pledge to fewer artists then, but they'll get more. (Even on Patreon the richer get richer, at the cost of those, who have less)

That's pretty abysmal honestly. I enjoy contributing to yours because paying $2/month is about what i'd pay for your stuff on iTunes anyway. Now it'd be quite a bit more.

it's a horrible idea. I support many different creators, at low amounts, because I feel any support is better than none. This change would have me paying roughly $10 a month more. The incentive then is to support fewer creators with bigger pledges, which sucks.

yep it's gonna kill creators whose main income is 1 & 2 dollar pledges

This is even worse for countries that have to pay exchange rate, like Brazil. Here US$1,00 = R$3,35.
