I bet people as principled snd heavy with their convictions on privacy as the parent commentor is...is such a small portion of people that it won’t do too much to go over the top to accommodate them when you aren’t trying to do some crazy shenanigans any way.
The other problem with certain niches of people on Reddit, HN, etc, are that they don’t spend much money either. So they have lots of fringe requirements but scoff at paying $5 a month. Meanwhile, in the coworking community I run that has people from all sorts of backgrounds, they’re much different than HN or Reddit tech geek crowd. If something helps them. They’ll spend some money. They don’t despise subscriptions etc.
