Hi everyone,


First email from me since June(unless you are getting my updates from my other services which are not Alto).

This week I launched new service https://patronat.com/. 
It’s a bit like patreon and buymeacoffee, but with a twist. 

Big idea is not to focus on “creators” but for me(and everyone else) to showcase people, caused and companies I personally support.
So that people who know me might discover someone new to support.

Service is very new but on my personal page https://patronat.com/anton you can see who I support and who supported me.

Consider joining and if you have interesting blog on Alto or elsewhere I will send you 5USD monthly your way from me! 
Or if you don’t need that you can always support my work on Alto or anything else here https://patronat.com/anton+


Thank you! 

PS. I will write more updates soon! I have a clear vision of types of tools and quality of tools I want to build and new updates will come out soon.

Eg Patronat is a tool/system for sponsorship. Alto is for publishing. I will have new system for newsletters hopefully next week. And more things in the pipeline.

I also learned a lot in the past 3 years and I want to build systems/tools that are easy to run: cost is low, and software has quality and doesn’t require a lot of maintenance.
In year 2022-2025 I cut some corners and some things were not possible. But I tink I finally know how to achieve those goals for quality and longevity.

The goal is for tool be useful even just for 100-1000 people and just exist with almost 0 bugs over the years and low cost.
