Well we also monetize our work. Those sponsor slots ain’t free! And we do other biz stuff, but yeah, all in the name of the community. If we just wanted to make a bunch of money we’d have started some SAAS company so it could be acquired by some tech giant. 😋
Right now we have monthly sponsors you see on the sidebar as well as some optional paid memberships, which we don't really push that hard.
We're a small team so these basic elements have been enough, but we do want to keep pushing our business model in a dev friendly way, so we're gradually working on some more features to help organizations reach developers in ways which is healthy for the whole community.
Because we have a lot of traffic and pretty low costs, we're able to make money without selling out too hard, but we are continuing to try to build out more additive features mostly in the "career services" space. This encompasses education as well as helpful job placements, but it's all a work in progress.
While most developers are trying to monetize their work you are making it for betterment of the community.
