Do you guys have any trouble seeing the content on patreon without signing up?

what’s patreon🤷‍♂️

Patreon is a content hosting site as well as a place you can throw a few bucks to content providers. It may be more than that but I don't know.

I found the app and looked around a little. Seems it’s mostly pay to read

it is mostly pay to read which is why I’m worried it’s not going to work out for my needs. 

even though I don’t charge for my content, Patreon has a reputation and I’m worried it’s turning people away. 

I may need to start my own website.

I've had no problem with a paywall getting in to see/hear your stuff.
