Oh yea, was about to suggest that in #762 but then thought ads could go against the spirit of this whole thing.
How about you set up a faucet with the sats earned through ads? That'd be cool.
I think ads aren't against the spirit necessarily. I think a traditional ad network or fiat ads would be, but having a sat-based auction likely only participated in by cool bitcoin companies would be consistent. It'd be a way for the site to generate a trickle of cashflow. Everything is subject to user feedback of course but we'll see.
The faucet idea is interesting. Users get sats for exploring ads you mean? I like that idea. Kind of like $BAT but with real money.

Nah, I meant as two separate products. You'd have ads say on the main page, and a faucet @ stacker.news/faucet. The faucet helps non-lightning folks to get started and you'd fund that with the ad proceeds (so that it's not charity).

Ah I see. Yeah I like that idea!
