Yes #QOTO has been emailed many times by people with money asking to buy influence. Im sure most large instance admins have dealt with it many times... i usually just ignore the emails, nothing new, move along.
@freemo Just a random thought about monetizing a #fediverse instance.
I am thinking about a platform were ad providers would be bid for an ad placement and who ever wins the bid has to submit his ad for approval from 10 random instance users in top 1000 most active users.
The biding platform would be opensource and active users selection would be transparent as well as the ad approval process.
The ad placements could easily dismissed by the instance users if they found they are annoying.
I think this could be a win/win. #fediverse admin could get some cash to improve the instance or fund whatever cause the instance stand for and active users have input on who is buying ads.
