I see quite some posts on the topic of #monetisation on the #Fediverse. My opinion, in its simplest form, is that #ActivityPub connects people. In open, transparent and, yes, free ways. Think of AP as TCP/IP, but for people

With that in mind, note that TCP/IP itself has no features for monetisation. That is done on top of the protocol. This is how I would like to see monetisation in the fediverse too. As a separate thing on top of AP, never as inherent part of AP. My 2 cents (pun intended)
