Why we’re asking

The internet has changed.
Our love for stories hasn’t.

Advertising helps cover the cost of publishing the stories you read here. But that model is under increasing pressure. Ad blockers prevent some ads from appearing, and when an ad cannot be shown, that visit cannot earn the advertising revenue that helps fund our work.

At the same time, changes to search and social platforms make it harder for smaller publishers to reach readers. Advertising income is less dependable, while hosting, maintenance, and the time it takes to research, write, and edit each article still come at a cost.

We want our stories to stay open to everyone, without a paywall standing between you and your next great discovery. Reader support helps us rely less on an uncertain advertising model and keep sharing stories worth your time.

We understand why people use ad blockers and care about their privacy. There are plenty of other ways to help. However you choose to support Chillopedia, we’re grateful you’re here.
