@kaikatsu@Moon Depends, but it would still be very little as most streams get very little viewership. Most money they make comes from their viewers and sponsors.
@matrix@Moon Yes, but it's still some noticeable income to where streamers choose to continue running ads.
I think viewers and sponsors are going to be low on any niche alternative service. I think the selling point should be "uncensored" instead of ad-free. Most people aren't too bothered by ads to pay $10 to stop them (the average TV watcher is completely used to a program being 33% ads). I think moon should go with the "uncensored" angle, as those people are the ones looking for alternatives. Some censorship to prevent FBI-warrant stuff, but in general just market it as a freezespeach streaming service for people like Terry (man I miss those streams)
