Affiliate Links

Many people use adblockers, and it is easy to understand why — many websites overload pages with disruptive ads, pop-ups, or auto-play videos. At the same time, running a website involves real costs, from hosting to content production. Since only a small percentage of visitors ever subscribe or donate (often estimated at around 2%), relying on that model is not sustainable for most independent publishers.

This site uses affiliate links as an alternative. Instead of displaying intrusive ads or collecting personal data for ad targeting, affiliate links are added to recommend relevant products or services. If a visitor clicks an affiliate link and completes a purchase or action, the site may earn a small commission at no extra cost to the user. This approach helps support ongoing operations while keeping the reading experience clean and respectful.

All affiliate links are selected manually by the site owner based on personal interest, relevance, or alignment with the site’s content. Participation in affiliate programs — including platforms such as Rakuten (LinkShare), Impact, and others — does not influence what is written. The site does not sell user data or track behaviour beyond what the affiliate platforms handle through basic redirection.
