I love Patreon and I ditched all top social media platforms in favor of it to grow a little community without ads/algorithms/noise pollution. However, the app is horrendous. Lens posts show up blank constantly and every time I make a Lens post I get an error message notification even when it uploaded without any issues. There’s a lot to be desired- patrons cannot comment with photos nor can creators, there’s no simple button to click to view my current paid patrons and those who have declined or left so I can reach out, there’s no way to organize photos into albums for patrons to view, the only social they consider us linking to is Facebook etc and I don’t use that platform (would be nice to be able to sync up with my Pinterest/VSCO/Vero, etc.) More customization on our creator profiles would be nice and would definitely help us stand out, and having the ability to create a feed of our public posts on our website would also be a nice way to help us drive traffic without depending on social media. There’s just a lot more thought that needs to go into assisting creators with standing out, getting noticed, and having the ability to share and easily check all of our stats, etc. The app needs a massive overhaul of updates and big fixes. We can’t expect tons of people to want to chip in to paying us monthly if what they’re getting in return is so clunky, buggy, and absolutely basic and boring.
