TIL Patreon's estimated revenue in 2021 is $160m, and Substack's is $11.9m. Anecdotal but I don't know anyone using Patreon yet know tons on Substack. Would have assumed less of a delta.

I think part of the problem are the products' user bases. Substack has a huge free writer base, and they think of it as just a platform to manage their free newsletter on. Patreon is used by people planning to charge their community and can be flexibly applied to any type of community. Much larger opportunity.
