First time I was asked about advertising

Having a high-quality newsletter was always my first goal. So I decided not to think about monetization until later. I do believe that I need to monetize unzip.dev, I just want to be sure that it is done in a way that doesn't hinder the reading experience - and I feel comfortable doing so.

Having a way to sustain this project is important, I put 20-30 hours for each issue + infra + other expenses. So I need to make sure this can be a long-term project that I can continue to grow healthily.

Anyway, someone reached me and asked if I could give him rates for advertising. I decided to hold advertising in the newsletter until I find the right recipe for it. Nonetheless, getting asked this was really nice, knowing that this is something that is worth money for people, without me actively reaching out.

If you are a reader, and you have an idea for me on monetization, I'd love to hear it :)
