Comment on Why haven't we figured out monetisation for peertube?
Navigator@jlai.lu 2 months agoHosting cost money, so an host can setup a patreon to make money to host his peertube instance.
Monetisation like YouTube-monetisation means ads everywhere because, monetisation on YouTube comes from publicity.

That’s a type of monetization.
OP didn’s ask about “YouTube-like monetization”.
Navigator@jlai.lu 2 months ago
Op wasn’t very specific on what monetisation he was talking about either.
What is your point exactly?

Why did you make crazy assumptions, then?
That you made crazy assumptions that were never in OP’s question in the first place.

1/ I just gave one example of monetisation that is working with peertube as it is now.
2/ And I explain briefly why most replies make the link with monetisation and ads.
I didn’t make any assumption in 1, I answer the question : monetisation on peertube is possible right now. In 2, I assume Op didn’t understand why people react often as if monetisation was equal to ads. But I didn’t assume Op was talking about that specifically, because if I was I wouldn’t have suggested an alternative monetisation way in 1 in the first place.
You use the word crazy about me two sentences in a row, on a post of two sentences. Chill.
