    They’re offering to pay you to watch ads, same as what Brave does.

    You’re going to get people who fall for the “free money” aspect, same as always.

    (Also replacing a site’s ads with their ads is exactly the same shit Honey is doing, so it’s nice to see that the founder has a single idea and is going to keep going after it.)

      In the early days of brave it was glorious. Set up max notification on my phone, set to minimise notifications - profit.

      Literally cashed out like $100 this way over the span of about 6 months, before the rugpull, I assume. Ads paying out way less now.

      It was hilarious. For me. The ads were (and I believe still are) primarily advertising other shitcoins hahaha

      Edit: I should note, I used Tasker and did not have to see a single ad.
