They don't value all users equally, ones in North America are generally worth considerably more. From a quick search, I can't find any more recent info, but in Jan 2016 a user from USA/Canada was worth $13.54/quarter [1]

I'm really surprised to see this from a company that makes, of all possible genres, clicker games . Clicker games usually have almost no actual gameplay, and pretty much only interest people because they exploit many of the same type

Thank you for answering. I think it's perfectly reasonable at the current income level, since if that's a typical month's income it would mean that you're still only taking in about $50k/year, which is difficult to

With those numbers, you kept about 54% of October's income. So how is that split determined? That is, is it a fairly flat overhead so if the income had been $100,000, you still would have kept ~$4000? Or are you taking a percentage an

I had trouble getting a large hard-shell suitcase onto a train in Tokyo once, and didn't quite get it inside before the doors closed on it. They crushed it so strongly that it cracked before I could pull it through. I absolutely wouldn

I'm not sure if you're only thinking about buying pre-made coffee from convenience stores, Starbucks, etc. but coffee is very cheap to make yourself. It should only be cents a day unless you're using pretty high-end stuff. Al

I'm not sure where you got the idea that Wikipedia doesn't bring in much. Their annual plan from last year [1] says that they expected to raise over $60M during the year. Unless anything's changed recently, they also try to k

No, I think it's more than that. He specifically said that it won't be possible to open-source some parts.

It shouldn't be posted on Mastodon itself , but they should just set up a simple static blog somewhere. Medium is the opposite of Mastodon in so many ways (centralized, heavy data-collection, etc.) that it really makes no sense for th

Doesn't really work because the gifs lazy-load as you scroll down. So you'd either have to run it repeatedly, or scroll through the whole post first and then do it.
