should i start a discord for patreons?

i've seen other people have them XP i personally don't use discord, i'm not even sure what i would do there that's different frfom uploading things in here XP
but should i? i know tons of people use it.
maybe you guys can tell me your experiences with other artists you support and all that? :O
tell me in the comments! XP
(keep in mind a discord channel would in no way replace patreon uploads, i'll always upload here!)

This may or may not be an idea but if you tried a private telegram channel set it in a reward tier. For example maybe only $10+ get a code. If you appointed admins they might be able to help out? Probably won't work but just throwing it out there

Personally while I enjoy the discord option, if you dont even use discord then i dont really need the option. It seems kinda unnecessary currently. If patreons starts having issues, them id consider it. But currently I'm fine with how your stuff is.

this comment was very helpful! yeah, i don't have plans to stop uploading here. i just wanted to use it as a "backup" to say it in a way... but if it has issues or if it's annoying to do then i won't do it. it's not worth the hassle XP

I'd say no. If Patreon isn't asking you to take down content then leave it here. Too many artists are using Discord and sometimes the Patreon/Discord integration has issues. It's annoying when you have to start loading apps or running to other sites for the content you pay for.

Discord is nice

i agrgee with you guys, telegram is better! (and you can talk to me on @joshthetiger) BUT... i can't manage a telegram group for patreons there! i have around 90,100 patreons, and i would have to check constantly who's pledged and who isn't (since the idea is to share patreon stuff). but discord and patreon manage that automatically, making it super easy. i sometime make sketches and concept art for future characters from the comic and stuff like that. and i though it would be nice to have another place to keep you guys updated (and that doesn't send you an email everytime i do a thing that might not be that good xD my sketches are really bad hahaha)

Telgram is fun

Personally, I'd prefer a Telegram group. I never got used to Discord, myself, but it's good for organizing multiple chats for a single group, I believe.

I really don’t like discord, I prefer telegram
