What Hacker News says?
Yes--there's also plenty of money being spent on newsletter advertising. I make about $2k/month in revenue from that myself.[1] Publishers have lots of flexibility on how to monetize; you can do ads, or paid subscriptions, or a mix of both.... I'm planning to do paid subs + free with ads for Yakread. [1] https://thesample.ai/
