>>29458678I've been sitting on this for a while, but I didn't really want to pitch it because deplatforming is not a huge problem in the VTubing realm yet, and this project may seem shady to those unfamiliar with this realm of the Internet.
Dick Masterson of The Dick Show fame got himself certified as a payment processer and used to have a Patreon alternative called New Project 2 where he would allow anyone and everyone to join and not ban them unless by court/bank order and he would be transparent about it, in return only taking a 1% fee to cover the costs of payment processing (much smaller cut than Patreon and Co.). However, the site had to be shut down after a fervid anti of Josh Moon, owner of Kiwi Farms and Dick's acquaintance, called the banks with some bullshit and got him put on the MATCH list, effectively blacklisting him from the global banking system and shuttering New Project 2.

His tweets auto delete after a week so I can't link to it but here it is on
