The only real attempt at monetisation that I’ve seen is https://beetoons.tv/, but they use their own crypto - making it like Odysee. Why is that?

Edit: Please, before you answer consider this monetisation doesn’t mean ads!

    There’s an important element to monetization in the Fediverse that people are not tackling:

    Money movement is tracked. And we are here mostly to avoid tracking.

    I have this account tied to my more-or-less-real persona, but I have 12 more accounts in the Fediverse not tied to it. If setting up something like a subscription service would mean Fediverse has to implement eg.: KYC laws, or attach accounts to real person banking info, then I’m barred from participating in this real money economy in 11/12ths of the Fediverse even if I liked the content.
