Honestly there’s no real reason to do that lmao
My stuff almost always gets posted to Twitter and bluesky at the exact same time, and I don’t lock any art behind a paywall. You can’t even vote on patreon only polls or get cheaper comms, which are the patron bonuses!
I don’t really have a problem with it since like i said there’s barely any difference, but maybe consider spending a single dollar a month so you can also vote?
