Hey, just popping in here as a nominal member of the "creative industry". Either on my own peddling my writing skills or lending a helping hand to other artists selling products and goods, I've tried my hand at so many platforms, never tried any of the decentralised or blockchain-based ones like Patreon, as to me, they never really solved the problems of other freelancer platforms, nor did they ever break the hegemony of recognised art platforms like Deviant or even say, suicidegirls. Shop-based gallery types, you'd still find better luck on Etsy and such. So my take is a centralised system still works better, so something like clica, with the option of BTC tipping, is good.

Had started a few months ago a sort of gallery for a young artist, but exam year put a pause to that - might try out something like Clica but have to admit, viewership seems a tad low if exposure is all we're looking for. And then an easy shop interface is better so might be tempted to try your store feature.
