  • So while I understand the love for FOSS and an Ad Free Experience, somebody still has to pay for the server time. Now I know this doesnt exactly work in THIS scenario with Sync, but couldnt ads and paid subs in Apps be a good way for Lemmy/KBin instances for be financed without having to rely on donations?

    For Example, imagine if Lemmy.ml had their own app with their own experience and if you wanted to support it without actually handing over money, now you could use ads in the mobile experience and feel a little better about your lurking.

    Just a thought.


  • I can’t either! I got bit by the audiobook big a few months ago and jumped into MAM and it’s been fantastic! Half the books are looked behind their VIP section, but it’s super easy to get that status of your seed consistently. I was given literally 1000s of their bonus points from other members just for hanging around their forums for a few post. Bought my VIP status with the bonus points, and now I log in every month or so and convert my points to top of my VIP status and then dump the rest into my Ratio











  • Strange New Worlds has also captured the magic that was Old Trek. And I am talking about the magic of the TOS! Definitely worth a check out. But I can agree that Disco and Picard are not for everyone.

    Disco - New Trek for a New Audience.
    Picard - Love letter for people who wanted an endcap to TNG and their favorite captain.
    Lowerdecks - Pure Nostalgic fun!
    New Worlds - Back to the original formula but this time with a VFX Budget.
