Good suggestion for monetization

This is actually really fine and something that is even more acceptable when giving a head up or notice as you've done, I saw the top comment saying you should add a spot for people to watch ads for the website, i think this is a good idea, for instance if someone wants to walk away from their computer for 30 minutes they can go to the ad page and support the platform, and better yet as he also mentioned, adding a little "ads watched" number to the profile page might give a little incentive to watch ads for the people who like to watch numbers go up xD
