There's some content creators that I get value from and watch on Youtube. From time to time I get the desire to donate a couple of euro to them, however, most of the times they either have Patreon or nothing at all. Sometimes they have Ko-fi - then there's no problem.

I try to avoid giving money to US businesses as much as realistically possible. But I'm wondering whether I should make an exception here. What are your guys' thoughts on this?

It's a bit like credit cards, there is seldom alternative.

I take it practically. I use android instead of sailfish mobile device, at work need to use windows, and I use credit cards. So I use also US based platforms to support content creators when there is no alternative.
