We don’t know how to monetize. Ads are the only option that we know of, donations do not work at all, as proven by my previous projects.
A subscription-based model might be the only viable one, since ads will inevitably lead to a conflict of interest and voluntary donations are mostly a no-go.

To make the experience less annoying I've blocked a bunch of communities mainly because they're not interesting to me (there's a lot of anime and/or porn communities, fucking hell), but it's generally a nice experience – I can run into all kinds of things that I hadn't heard of before. I haven't even gotten traumatized yet! Shame the only way to filter the feed is to block communities, but eh
Must be true if Musk said it
