Make art, not ‘content’
The best part of a piece might be the side that no one sees.
For a long time, I kept so much of my process private. The sketches that didn’t make the cut. The unfinished watercolor washes. The experiments, pivots, and almost-painted-over versions that happen before a piece becomes what it’s meant to be.
But the more I’ve shared those quieter, rougher moments on @Patreon, the more I’ve realized how much connection can live there, too. A piece of process that might have stayed tucked away in my sketchbook can now become the first doorway someone finds into my work.
And honestly, that has changed the way I think about sharing. Because somewhere out there is a person who might be moved by the part you almost deleted, the painting that didn’t quite work, or the rough idea you weren’t sure mattered.
Sometimes the part of the process you almost didn’t share is exactly what someone’s been waiting to find.

Every 7 years, the internet seems to reinvent itself. We think we’re entering one of those moments now.
Over the past year, our team at Patreon has been working on new discovery features designed to help creators grow and fans find work they’ll actually care about (without all the brain rot and rage bait). Here’s a look at what’s rolling out:
🖼️ A new mobile Home feed powered by shared interests. Fans will still have the option to view work in a separate dedicated feed just for their memberships.
💬 Quips, a free post format for quick thoughts, in-progress ideas, and conversation starters that can reach new fans beyond your existing members.
🤝🏻 Collaboration tools that let creators co-author posts and cross pollinate their communities.
👤 A single identity that brings together your creator and fan presence so your voice and work travel with you across Patreon.
🛡️ New safety features and controls designed to support healthier discovery and more intentional communities.
Join us in building the next era of the internet, one shaped by creators, communities, and real connection.
As you’ve probably seen, I’ve been using Quips for quite some time now, and I’m so happy to share that @patreon is rolling out its new discovery features to everyone.
Patreon has become home to me. I opened my page 3 years ago, and I’ve genuinely enjoyed every interaction, every milestone, and also seeing how much the Patreon team keeps working to make this whole experience better and better.
These new discovery tools feel super organic, and they’ve made me feel lighter when it comes to sharing things online.
I can now post a thought while I’m walking down the street, discover other incredible artists through the feed, and even collaborate with them on longer posts.
For those of you who know me, you know how much passion I put into creating every single tutorial I share on Patreon. And now, I feel like I have the opportunity to grow inside the platform, have more conversations with both current and new community members, and keep building this space in a way that feels super natural. #paidbypatreon
NGL… it feels good to be discovered inside of @patreon
For a long time, it felt like I always had to push my IG and Threads audience over there to grow.
But after testing out the new Patreon discovery features, creators are finding me natively.
I’ve been testing quips, collabs, and the merged home feed, and I’ve added 2k members from actually using them. Not perfect, YET, but I pay attention to what’s working for me
And this shift? It matters.
If you’re on Patreon, what’s your experience been with the new features? #paidbypatreon
We've discovered many new creators, friends, and fans with @patreon’s new discovery features. Browsing the app has turned into a journey of discovery as we foster a larger creative community. #paidbypatreon #DnD #TTRPG

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
