> Ad revenue needs to die as a business model for websites.

What other business model do you prefer? Would you prefer that websites collect massive amounts of information about you, datamine it, and sell it to third parties? Or should reddit users have to pay a monthly fee to look at shitty maymays?



What business model do you have for posting this comment?


I don't have a business. I like responding to edgy, baseless crap on the internet.


So if you agree that a business model is not required to motivate contribution, then why would someone have to choose one to endorse?


Could you rephrase that into something that makes sense?


I fucking love this comment.
