itch.io

The problem was FINALLY fixed a few months ago. 

Though I found out by one of my attempts to sign in -- and IT WORKED -- and *not* by them telling me the problem had been solved,

The "problem" was I have a very old email address -- coming up on 25 years -- and unlike the vast majority of email addresses, my "@" part has 2 dots -- "." -- in it and not the now standard one dot.

I've had a few problems with this is past years, but never one as annoying or long-lasting as happened with Patreon. 

As far as what Creator and their games you want to support on Patreon, I would say, what games do you LIKE to play that are here on itch/io and does its Creator have a Patreon account? (Some do not.)

I support about 4-5 different games, all basically at the lowest tier because that is all I can afford, and I play ALL of those games -- and I look forward to playing them! And there are a lot of pluses with being a Patreon supporter, including early releases of games, and often special things like additional images, voting in game-related polls, and sometimes even mini-games for Patreon supporters only.

I've been a Patreon member for about 3-4 years and never had a problem with the site until This THING with the email happened to me. Personally I find the more that Patreon stays out of the way of its Creators, the better it is for everyone.

So, I'd look on itch/io and see what games you like and what you actually play, and then read the info about those games because if the Creator is a Patreon member, you can be *sure* they will mention it in their itch/io posts! And then just click on the link!
