So I get ads are terrible, obviously. I run ad-blockers all the time. But people also get angry at paywalls. So that leaves me wondering, if not through ads or subscriptions, how is a news publisher supposed to sustain itself?

You’re gonna have to explain yourself because I’m not sure collecting rents and tithes and recieving gifts from pious nobles is that great a business plan.
eh i don’t have the energy to explain it rn in full detail but let’s say at the least i think that literature (of all sorts) should be a non-profit thing, not written for profit. and monasteries were the closest to a non-profit thing that you could get in the medieval ages.
