Should we move the livestreams?
Added 2023-12-22 18:26:02 +0000 UTCWe have been talking about the possibility of moving our livestreams over to YouTube memberships. We have been having issues with Patreon and the Crowdcast app, and I wanted to see what you all thought. I am not making a decision right away, just wanted to gauge your thoughts about it. Also, I know some of you wanted to still have access to the past livestreams over here, so I can keep Patreon going and give access to them at the $1 a month tier if that helps :)

The question is where can our messages be kept private? Can they be identified somehow?

2023-12-25 04:11:17 +0000 UTCIt wonβt let you increase your pledge?? π³π΅βπ« reach out to support@patreon.com and they should be able to fix it quickly. Iβm so sorry youβre having issues! Keep me posted ππ

2023-12-25 04:10:34 +0000 UTCIβm not good at making decisions and also Iβm new around here so Iβll go with the flow π

2023-12-23 21:53:25 +0000 UTCTotally irrelevant but when I joined Patreon. I only opted for the $1 tier π©. Now I canβt upgrade to a higher tier. I am sooooo glad I joined this community π©· I really donβt mind if they stay here or move.

2023-12-23 09:01:51 +0000 UTCHow would it work for them to be for patreon members only?

2023-12-23 03:13:57 +0000 UTCDefinitely! xoxo
Kati Morton
2023-12-23 01:54:06 +0000 UTCYes! The livestreams where I answer your questions :) xox
Kati Morton
2023-12-23 01:53:41 +0000 UTC@Kati You can do an unlisted stream, giving the link from Patreon. That way you have to have the link to join the stream, but it would still be on YouTube.

2023-12-22 23:29:42 +0000 UTCWould it help to do a Trial Run for the one of the Extra Livestreams via Youtube ?
Joolz
2023-12-22 23:27:29 +0000 UTCI can never make the live streams so I feel like I donβt have a say. Sorry guys
Angela Ross
2023-12-22 22:52:21 +0000 UTCWould it be possible to vary the times occasionally? Working a M-F 8-5 kind of job makes it hard to participate very much

2023-12-22 21:35:12 +0000 UTCThe combo drives me crazyβ¦but I still prefer β€οΈ

2023-12-22 21:26:42 +0000 UTCIs this the Q&As?
Alecia Bernardoni
2023-12-22 21:20:07 +0000 UTCI wish you had more openings for the top tiers
Rhonda
2023-12-22 21:06:46 +0000 UTCI love it on YouTube but I stepped my membership down because I wasn't asking anything really for that reason. Tho I do miss them as the hangouts are great.
Zanarie
2023-12-22 20:14:04 +0000 UTCYeah I don't think they have that feature either. xoxo
Kati Morton
2023-12-22 19:56:34 +0000 UTCI don't know if they have that feature.. so good point :) xox
Kati Morton
2023-12-22 19:56:10 +0000 UTCGood point!
Kati Morton
2023-12-22 19:55:18 +0000 UTCYou would just switch to paying on YT only :)
Kati Morton
2023-12-22 19:55:00 +0000 UTCAs a side note if you are in the top 2 tiers and do the hangouts, those will remain the same. xoxo
Kati Morton
2023-12-22 19:54:35 +0000 UTCYes, please move them. I've never been able to log into the Crowdcast app so I always miss out.

2023-12-22 19:43:39 +0000 UTCI find the viewing experience marginally better on YouTube but I would half cast a quarter of a vote if that had been an option
Frederic Merizen
2023-12-22 19:17:10 +0000 UTCI love the fact that I don't have to compete with others to get my question answered here on patreon. If there was a way to gather individual questions and ensure they all get answered on YouTube I would be game to move.
Kiaya
2023-12-22 19:06:41 +0000 UTCI prefer the Patreon/ crowd cast but I am open to both.
Christoph S.
2023-12-22 19:04:35 +0000 UTCAlso a good point!
Gina Stacey
2023-12-22 18:53:14 +0000 UTCThe only part of it I'm unsure about is how you would you do extra livestream questions as I don't think YouTube has a separate question feature in the chat.
Gina Stacey
2023-12-22 18:52:01 +0000 UTCThe only thing that puts me off the YouTube live streams is that there is no way to stay anonymous when asking questions.
Zanarie
2023-12-22 18:42:46 +0000 UTCYES PLEASE MOVE THEM OVER TO YOUTUBE MEMBERSHIP BUT PLEASE KEEP ALL THE OLD LIVE STREAMS OVER HERE AT THE $1 MEMBERSHIP LEVEL BECAUSE I USE PAST LIVE STREAMS Q&A S THESE AS RESOURCES on a daily basis
Celina
2023-12-22 18:39:43 +0000 UTCSo does that mean we would have to be a paid subscriber with YouTube too?
Rhonda
2023-12-22 18:28:42 +0000 UTCI'm open to either. I will miss the intimacy of the patreon lives though
Nick Higney
2023-12-22 18:28:16 +0000 UTCYes please move them.
