I’ll start:

  • Some significant portion of funds go towards development of the Lemmy software. 80%? Rest goes to lemmy instance hosting.
  • Ads are reasonable and non-intrusive (no popups etc)
  • People can still browse w/ an adblocker

I personally would gladly turn off my adblocker if I knew the ads were supporting development. Hell, I might even click a few!

    I am all for ways to increase revenue for devs, I have donated. However ads are anti privacy by default. A way for people that don’t want to donate but still want to support? How about a list of referral links people can use? Good middle ground.
