how do I monetize
Apparently, just add "AI" 🤷 Venture Capitalists are gonna be knocking down your door, or so the media tells us.
Now, I wouldn't, and if you do you'd very likely be the butt of as many jokes as you have been, suggesting ad financing.
The fediverse doesn't much like commercialisation, or slop. It's not a great place for traditional monetization, but terrific if you're happy making things for people.
