Id prefer some ads. No objection to then in rif, and let’s be honest- everything nsfw or news is an advert in some way.

I think we should try with opt-in ads.

And it would be on me if I want to donate money, or via ads or nothing at all.

After that we can see if that is enough or more active approach is needed.

We can even have an opt-in for NSFW ads, which would probably make more money. Most of the time I don’t mind, it is just important that I can switch it off.

my fear is that instances started competing just to gain more money, because the donations are enough to cover the costs(i think was the adin of lemmy.world that said so), maybe if someone pay to the admin their product i guess it’s gonna work

If nsfw ads was a community id probably join it.

Why not both? If you want to support with donating, cool. If you’d rather support by enabling ads, cool. I can see it might be a slippery slope.
