Patreon's latest State of Create report reveals a growing concern among creators regarding their ability to connect with followers due to algorithmic feeds. A survey of creators and fans shows that 53% believe reaching audiences has become more challenging over the past five years, exacerbated by the rise of platforms prioritizing short-form video. Despite fans enjoying long-form content more and expressing willingness to pay for it, creators face tough competition for attention on platforms like TikTok. This has led creators to shift focus towards deeper connections with fans rather than traditional metrics such as likes and views.
When you focus on the platform mitigating the relationship between the creator and the subscriber, what you're really doing is taking away the human aspect of that interaction.
