Combined with the fee increase to 10%, this seems like an effort to boost profitability for an IPO.

"First, the people who work at Patreon are special, beautiful humans, through and through."

Second... Fuck those worthless humans, we want endless growth until we die sad and still unfulfilled.

Pamplemoose guy, you suck.

Maybe they should start a Patron to raise funds...

I know how important it is for folks to be able to say goodbye, so we've created a #gratitude-and-farewell Slack channel as a place for all of us to connect, if you feel comfortable.

Getting your ass kicked out the door, but you’re supposed to feel grateful ffs

Patron fires mostly middle manager, gives a great 16 week severance plus a year of healthcare and extras, says AI isn't replacing employees, and y'all still screeching 🤣

Nothing will ever make you happy 🤣

so many youtube creators depend on patreon, wonder where they go next.

I've read through just out of curiosity. The severance package is:

• 16 weeks of pay
• 1 week of pay for every year worked at the company
• healthcare insurance until the end of the year
• 1500$ to buy a laptop

Is this common in the US? This really feels like nothing. I do not know whether there are other remunerations funded by the government, but 4 months of pay after being laid off really is not very much.

Is this company paying out a very small sum to their employees or is it common to give very little money to fired people?

I support a podcast on Patreon but the special content has never worked properly for subscribers.
