Patreon vs Nexus

I keep this short.
I will no longer release my mods on Nexusmods they will be exclusive to my Patreon for an undefined amount of time.

Nexus have shown that they don't care about the mod community by doing random censorship, preferential treatment and selling their website to some tech bros that are focusing on monetization, which is fine they are a business after all. But them enriching themselves on other peoples work doesn't seem fair. Yes there is an upkeep cost, but who buys a company just to break even.
Maybe my mods will be released on Nexus again if they make the site more mod author friendly.

No mod that exists on my Nexus profile will be removed!

I think after a few months the mod will be made available to free members on Patreon, that seems to be the most fair solution to me.
