I'd think it would be a hard sell. But, it's hard to see other revenue models.

As I read in another post, the current revenue models (for devs and hosters) are donations and Patreon.

I kinda like the idea to have an open ad network, with privacy intact of course. I might think about it a little and set up a open source concept for it and post it here to get contributions.

Personally I wouldn't have a major problem with unobtrusive simple banner ads that are not at all personalised like what we had 15+ years ago, though I really prefer to just not see ads at all nowadays.

@gredo @NeonPayload I can see this being a good thing. I don't mind seeing ads so long as I'm not being tracked or shown targeted ones.
