    If you sell items from certain games (like CSGO) or redeem a gift card, you get credit applied to your steam account. This can be used to purchase games, then you could (hypothetically) sell them for real-world cash.

    The website is pretty transparent about what is paid. The features page has some features listed as part of the "pro" subscription. It seems that the only paid additions are automated rule updates, a whitelist, and early access to

    How could you change browser APIs to block infinite scrolling? It boils down to making a network request and adding html elements. You can't disable those since they're using significantly outside of infinite scrolling.
