ghost?

nm I looked it up myself.

Why aren't more people on ghost? It's a stupid name for what it does, but the $9 a month and keeping the rest is a great deal if you have more than a handful of subscribers.

Ghost managed hosting gets more expensive as you get more subscribers, I don't think Patreon does. You also have to set up the payments processor yourself (usually Stripe), and if you self-host, you need to set up an email service like Mailchimp. Ghost also has much more basic community features than Patreon, and doesn't do per-user RSS feeds, so stuff like subscriber-only podcasts are more difficult.
