Also we really need to know what other monetizing opportunities you're thinking about, because that will clearly impact the way we have to adapt ourselves to this new business model. For now it's kinda scary to think we might be loosing our primary source of monetization without knowing what we may get to replace it (Patreon doesn't sound like a proper replacement because it implies effort, and if we wanted to be there, we could already be there --some of us yet have accounts on both Tapastic and Patreon, and will lose money by loosing SP).
...And Patreon isn't geared toward comics. It's like dA. Have you tried putting prose on dA? Nobody gives a fuck about it because dA is all about visual art, really. No picture, no damn to give. From what I've heard, it's pretty much the same on Patreon. There are so many different types of content that you can't target a specific audience as easily as you can on Tapastic. Here everybody's in for the comics, we know what we get to find. Networking and marketing ourselves on Patreon would be much harder because we'd be lost among unrelated offers and entertainments media. The only way it can work is if Patreon were to create a dedicated service for comics.
And I personally find their graphic style to be really ugly, this orange and the fonts are so retro 70s and aggressive :/
