That's a good question that I'm still exploring. I'm still debating the non-profit vs for-profit route. At the moment this is bootstrapped and self-funded, but if I can gain enough traction I may attempt a freemium business model where people can pay for more advanced study tools (e.g., original languages) and potentially for in-house produced video content.
- nfoz 5y agoThanks for clarifying -- makes sense. Good luck with the project. Maybe I'm weird about it but reading the Bible for me is personal enough that I don't want to use an app that collects my identifier and tracks usage data. I'd rather pay for something I can use offline or anonymously. Non-profits seem preferable for this sort of thing as well imo.
- Syonyk 5y agoI'm reminded of this (rather well done) comic about social credit systems, and your concerns are reflected in it: https://www.hummingfluff.com/lovelypeoplecomic.html https://www.hummingfluff.com/lovelypeoplecomic.html I don't mind the occasional online Bible app, but in general, I'd far rather read offline with something that doesn't track my reading/information/etc. I understand that the gamification can be useful, but it also is a wealth of "big data" that can be aggregated and I'm not sure that's healthy for anyone.
