    It’s not one or the other though. Peertube with patreon can exist alongside YouTube

      Patreon is just one source of income. Ad revenue is another. Its good to have more than one source if you wanna make a living with it.

          I guess I missed your point lol. Is it possible to paywall a peertube video behind Patreon?

            It’s possible to post unlisted videos that are only visible to folk with the URL.

            Its good for folk who want to give their subscribers early access

                  Wait, does it? I thought they have better integration with Patreon to determine if you have access to the video. I guess I never checked if I can still open YouTube videos of channels I’m no longer subscribed to on Patreon.

                    I don’t know, maybe they have a specific agreement with Patreon or something. But in general, that’s how Patreon like services work with YouTube
