RE: This is gonna be the thread where we talk about stuff
As far as Patreon is concerned, it doesn't really require that its users release all of their content for free anyway. You can put it behind a pay barrier if you so desire.
I think it's sensible to release some content for free, so potential patrons have some idea what they're getting. But the free content is free, no strings attached.
For an example of this approach... Winky

But even if they are releasing stuff for free and then asking for money, I'm not sure it's fair to call it a gift or gratuity. The money is for giving the artist more time to create art. It's not a direct purchase, but it's still a kind of purchase.

At the very least, we're talking about busking, not begging. Though even that's a little different since it isn't implied you'll ever see the busker again or benefit from their use of your money.
