MODERATORS
Yeah that's fair.
Merchandising is the only palatable idea I can think of.
More likely to happen:
Twitter's verified user subscription strategy
More ad posts with paid-priority (priority hidden from users)
Layoffs with AI as miracle cure
Selling user data for AI training (check)
Paid API access (check)
But it's really hard to ignore that its function isn't really designed for profit and it's wacky that we have to humor the idea.
Ironically, if they charged moderators to be moderators, theyd probably pay for it. Some of those people were nuts.
