Currently, at THIS LINK you can see only the top creators in each category which is entirely unhelpful to smaller creators. It only boosts larger creators and there is also limited showcases of "similar creators to those you currently support" (You see some of this when you pledge to someone and a few suggestions on the side bar on your dashboard, which still seem to be "top creators" most of the time for me.)
As it stands, a friend of mine and fellow creator went to a patreon conference recently and they told her that they were not planning to make an ALL creator browse function at all because only creators seems to be wanting it. I know this is untrue because i've seen patrons asking for this sort of thing. So, i want to know your thoughts so i can send these poll results to Patreon. (And somehow they seem to forget that many creators are patrons TOO.)
It is so archaic to NOT have the ability to search creators. How they don't seem to see that this is utilizing the current user base that have already taken time to sign up and understand the value of supporting creators is beyond me. It's so hard to find other creators you want to support if you aren't already supporting them elsewhere and happen to know their name/patreon link. (and forget about NSFW artists. We don't show up in searches period, even if you know our patreon username. Though we've been trying to get them to allow users to have a NSFW/SFW filter in their settings that they can turn off to view NSFW content in searches because it's unfair to cripple NSFW artists as such when there are ways to enable search and still avoid minors accidentally finding out content.)
So again,
The question is, Do you want to see Patreon implement a Search/Browse function that can search ALL creators.
