Utreon: Good Video Hosting for Both Viewers & Creators (Audio Only)

I have mentioned Utreon before, but I want to take a moment to do so again. The site continues to grow and improve, and it has a bunch of features that are actually better than YouTube and Patreon - something virtually no other alternative hosting site can claim. Utreon is fundamentally a combination of independent video hosting and voluntary paid channel subscriptions (YouTube + Patreon). In a nutshell, its benefits are:
- Political & technological independence
- Based on transparency and fairness - Solid featureset
- Real investor capital to allow it to build a sustainable model as it grows
- Not gun-specific
Utreon is still a small site, tiny compared to a behemoth like YouTube. But it continues to grow and improve, and it is a solid platform for creators to use and earn income on today as a backup or an alternative for a YouTube channel.

Same as Ron, I seem to be paying more for less on Utreon. I am keen to support this but they need to make it a rational proposition

After watching C&Rs explanation and knowing that Ian was encouraging people to watch and support on Utreon I bit the bullet and upped my subscription to the Utreon minimum for the channels I support, nearly doubling my monthly commitment, only to find that when I click the "No M2 for Germany" video it presents me with a subscribe menu with the tiers of support listed. If tier one at $5 a month gets me less than I had on Patreon at $3 a month I will go back to Patreon. It is annoying enough that Utreon logs me out every time I turn my back, forcing me to input a passcode nearly every time I open the page, but I can afford to support more channels on Patreon than I can on Utreon, which will eventually force me to triage what channels I support. Hoping these issues will be resolved soon.
