Why haven't we figured out monetisation for peertube?

The only real attempt at monetisation that I've seen is https://beetoons.tv/, but they use their own crypto - making it like Odysee. Why is that?

Edit: Please, before you answer consider this monetisation doesn't mean ads!

WHY DON’T WE MAKE THIS SHITTIER???????????

Funny, I said "monetisation", you heard "ads". Do you think that's the only way to monetise something?

You don’t know what I heard. Please do not speculate.

No, but I’ve been around the block often enough to know that “monetization” almost always means “take something away from people and then sell it back to them”.

Ads are best case. I can filter those out. The rest is worse.

OK, then.

What other options do you think there are?

You keep posting that link without making a point. What is your point?

I don't think that's mean to be OP's point but rather a footnote for anti-AI copyright stuff or something. I saw few other people do that as well.
