RE: Thanks to your activism, Patreon has rolled back their fee increases

Depends on how they have their service set up with payment processors. Getting low rates for microtransactions can be difficult and a number of available methods don’t allow donation-like transactions such as this. Some % of the 5% was likely going towards this to combat the smaller donations, but they’re probably becoming more popular than is manageable under their current cost structure.
