This post was written primarily for a furry audience, whom has been a bit panicked over yesterday's news that Patreon did such a head-ass move.

After I tweeted that I deleted my Patreon (to which I paid like $700/month to various creators), several people asked me (publicly and privately) whether they should follow suit. I wanted to offer a calmer take.

Since there was discussion on HN about this topic yesterday, I thought the folks here would appreciate the perspective.
