This week Kristen Bell’s Reefer Madness Musical Documentary dropped exclusively on Patreon (patreon.com/reefermadness). This was broadcasted on our newest product called Drops that allows fans to watch exclusive video and livestreams in real-time together. It’s just the beginning of some exciting creator launches to come. Shout out to Lois Yang, Lu Chen, Mary Ellen Funke, Mimi Xu, Pietro Sette, Jason Byttow, Charles Chen, Luke Potasiewicz, Matt Rigdon and Nathan Gieseker for the incredible launch.

It’s been a year since we launched the new app. Here's some of the things we've learned: - Challenging the status-quo is hard: Specifically building a platform that challenges social feed norms. - What it’s been like to build "community first" and 5x growth: The differences in Patreon communities and the importance of scaling them safely. - The value of internal mobility: Letting folks work on the most impactful thing at any given time. Interested in joining us? We are hiring @ jobs.patreon.com.
