    Would you rather see those flashy RackNerd and HostSailor ads, or a subtle animation like this?

    push-ups

    Neither if I'm being honest

    It seems to me that people who have engaged are pretty much ok with any option, no one is vigorously attacking any option so it makes sense to give people just that, options :)

    I would support LES through Patreon (even without any perks) and still wouldn’t complain about ads.

    Providers make money by selling.
    People come here for sales and for info.
    The more people that visit, the greater the chance of sales.
    So sales should generate revenue for LES - not the consumers.

    That is why this place never will be a ”pay2visit” community.

    Just realize the poll and voting results were wiped when I unannounced the thread.... Way to go, Vanilla.

    I think we have a good amount to discuss and a general concensus in this anyways

    I'd chip in with Patreon no questions asked.

    I'm the 85%. Also Elon likes memes hence he's an idiot.

    (Sorry, I'm late to respond.)

    Just to say:

    • I have no problem with ads (that aren't terribly intrusive) and wouldn't block ads.
    • I would certainly consider making a donation every now and then.

    Sorry didn't read the whole messages.

    I suggest a new user tag for donor. Some people like recognition.

    Yeah, I registered here only to get OG tag, otherwise I'll be lurker.

    I'm currently at work so can't read all the messages but maybe an option would also be to "reserve" 2-3 paid offer threads that would be like sticky announcements for x days?

    Sorry if this has already been mentioned.
