Supported access labels
- Free: the release is directly available without support gating.
- Creator supported: the creator offers support links, bonus files, or optional support around a public release.
- Patreon linked: the main action points to Patreon or an equivalent support platform.
- External: the primary file is hosted off-site.
- Free sample plus support: a sample is public while extras live behind the creator support path.
Expectations for creators
Do not hide broken or missing files behind vague support language. If the main file is off-site, use an external URL. If support is optional, keep the direct file action clear so users know what is free and what is extra.
Expectations for users
Creator support links are owned by the creator, not by the Hub. Review off-site terms, pricing, and download instructions before leaving the site.
