Avoids ads while allowing you to gain an income for hosting and stuff. While I don't know about trust (I'm very generously assuming this is just about hosting fees, even though I personally don't believe it), I still think there's better ways to gain some form of compensation to achieve said goal. I personally don't want someone suddenly making money off of things I've contributed to the site, especially when previously this was not the case. We also have no way of trusting you'll "pay" people to compensate. Overall, this feel very kneejerk. A Patreon would work better, and would feel much more "moral" than putting up ads.

:Too add onto this, past contributors literally did not ask to be paid for their efforts, and did this because they wanted to. I know I did. You're not introducing the idea that past contributors would be paid, which could then create a divide between past contributors and future contributors. This all-around feels like a terrible idea that could, again, be fixed simply by making a Kofi more accessible, or creating a Patreon.

This all-around feels like a terrible idea that could, again, be fixed simply by making a Kofi more accessible, or creating a Patreon, which are much less intrusive methods, and I believe you should attempt before trying to go fully into ads.
