Is something like Patreon tied to youtube? Could you fund someone on vimeo or your own website with it?

Patreon doesn't support video uploads, at least as an embed. You can embed them from other sites and (I think) attach them to posts as downloads, but that's it.

But can you pull your videos from anywhere, or is it tied specifically to youtube?

I think it supports all the big video hosts. There's a box to paste a video URL, and it's labeled "Embed support for YouTube, Vimeo, and more."

So it sounds like you could just run your videos on vimeo, or (even better) build and host your own videos and get paid.
