#DuckDuckGo is profitable since 2014 without tracking people. Instead they sell plain #advertisement slots based on keywords. I think other webpages and news site could do the same. Using advertisement to fund you online presence isn't bad in general. It is just a question of how to do it. https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-revenue-generation-model-for-DuckDuckGo/answer/Gabriel-Weinberg
That's also one of the reasons why I like #PrivacyBadger from #EFF more then stupid #Adblocker's. I'm happy to see advertisement if I use journalistic content for free as long as it respects my privacy and isn't a security risk to my computers.

Being told to RTFM by a hecking printer
#GitPub is a decentralized federation protocol based on the W3C's #ActivityPub, which extends #ActivityStream 2.0. It provides a server to server API for pull request, forking and subscription of repositories provided by #Git web services (services like #GitHub, #GitLab, #Gogs, #Gitea)... No code yet, but I like the idea! 🙂 https://github.com/git-federation/gitpub
