It looks like Olognion is shutting down due to the intersection of !money and !ads. I kind of feel like we could keep this site alive with a combination of a static site generation and/or some crowdfunding.

Thoughts?

TIL that site exists...

Is how they generate the site really the cost here?

@N00bPancakes
It went semi-vital pretty fast, and apparently the way his bank account is set up...

I don't know much about it, but I guess your suggestions could work. Might want to include donations too, some people preferring a one time payment over a subscription.

@SortOfTested Oh i see, traded convenience for some potential scale issues and got hit by a big bill maybe?

Granted, I absolutely do that on my crap that isn't likely to be used by anyone. Never been a problem.

Be interesting if this can hang on with the "I don't like ads" model. That's kinda the model... don't have to like it, but that's pretty much it on the web.

@N00bPancakes
Seems like he's just calling it a day without a valid alternative.

Never heard of it
