‘$1 HTML’

Why tf do US/western kids always think its okay to monetise everything they touch !? Just make something that are free because it doesn’t cost you anything, because it was fun, or because you want to share with others, ffs ! This is the same annoying ideological mindset as new game-programming kids that have setup ad-servings in their games before they have a gameplay, assets or any other working code.

You managed to enshittify your entire ‘fun’ project before it was even released. I think that is a horrible, childish, capitalist mindset/project, and I don’t think sharing/open-source people would want to support your selfish for-profit kid-project - ‘fun’ or not…

I seriously do not understand this.

  • OP claims it’s just for fun, yet it isn’t, as it’s for money.
  • OP says they’ve made hundreds of bucks on this, yet zero of the thousand pages are claimed. Either they’re lying or their vibe coded website is unsurprisingly broken.
  • OP says it’d be “interesting … to give people a tiny piece of a website” yet they aren’t giving away anything, it’s costs money.
  • “What if every person got their own HTML” but limits it to 1000 so every person cannot get their own HTML.
  • OP posts in the self hosting community, yet they aren’t even self hosting the website and, if I paid $1, I wouldn’t be self hosting my HTML page.

I feel like if OP were just honest about this they’d have better luck. Not good luck, but better luck.
