Can you share on P-F…..Patreon just deplatformed us for supporting “distribution of firearms”…..basically the Lipsey’s guns.

That sucks!
The issues with posting gun content online are ridiculous...
I don't understand why folks just don't get their own website and post videos there instead of YouTube, Instagram, Patreon, etc.
This way they can say and post whatever they want without the bullshit.
If they produce good content, then people will come to their website.
I saw his IG post, that really sucks and I’m sure the bump in traffic during SHOT week probably kicked off a review.
I think there’s a lot of promise with Discord; the best way to pay for content is a bit of a headache there but it’s doable.
You still need a provider to host your video content, no? Rumble seems to be doing pretty well as a video platform that doesn't restrict content.Originally Posted by Shawn Dodson
Are our $5/month memberships through Patreon automatically shut off, then?
ETA: I went to Paypal (which I use for this sort of stuff) and shut it off.

You can host your own video no differently than your own website. Storage and network transfer is usually the biggest cost, and video uses a lot more of both.
Rumble has never turned a profit and despite a recent spike is down 40% over the last year. The rate at which they're hemorrhaging cash has more than quadrupled over the last year ($11mil loss in FY2022, almost $90mil in 2023 with only 3 quarters reporting and I see no 10-Q filed for the last quarter). This is not a high growth "spend spend spend" environment, btw. You get that when the interest rates are 0% and it's casino time. Investors want returns right now because they have a safe 5% option. You can't be losing money with the notion it's an investment in market share, user base, whatever. That's over for now. If you can't beat what treasuries are doing now you need to have a compelling case to sell to your investors. Rumble doesn't have that. Though I guess bonus points for your "things are fucked" 8-K filing to basically be a link to blog post. Man I love living in the future.
Barring someone with a better explanation... they are probably entirely out of cash, currently under investigation by the SEC, missing the most recent 10-Q, lacking a 12b-25 explaining why there's no 10-Q...it doesn't add up to somewhere I'd invest a lot of time moving my content to.
I'll leave it to other people to cast chicken bones on their investor relations page with their SEC filings. I hate trying to read this shit when I have to in order to know what the fuck is going on with my RSUs. I don't have Rumble stock so that's a rabbit hole someone else can go down. The entire board having a bunch of form 4s (acquiring/divesting) isn't always shady but... whether this is an incredibly distressed company that's just totally cool above board y'know exchanging some Class C stock for some Class A and I'm Only Selling What I Said I Was Selling Months Ago or rats abandoning ship. Someone else can untangle that knot.
That's fucked up.
