Please put a stop to the ad supported web, EU

What alternatives are there?

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Only other alternatives I could think of would be just straight up harvesting and selling your customers data or paywalling your website, unless you're willing to lose profit.

I’d be fine with either paywalls and donations. Ad support is nice theoretically, but we’ve seen that we can’t be trusted not to turn that into a hellhole of popups and broken experiences to maximise revenue.
