And here's my bitcoin address: https://pastebin.com/QV5SjPr6 But again, the whole point of Patreon is that so you can project out the resources you'll have -- for planning purposes, etc.!

For the people raising issues about Patreon censorship, I agree. It's cause for concern. But I think the best way to combat the censorious tendency of tech companies is to "fight from the inside." Same philosophy with Twitter, which has also behaved dubiously at times.

I don’t understand how “fighting from the inside” doesn’t mean “Okay, I’ll take donations anyway possible.” You’re not fighting the system, you’re using it, which is fine.

I use Twitter, but I also object to some of Twitter's policies. By remaining on Twitter, I can seek to influence how they operate in a positive direction. Same philosophy.
