A Transparent Update: The Next Step for Softorage’s Sustainability
An Update on Monetization, Privacy and Community
Why We’re Introducing Ads
When I first launched Softorage, the goal was simple: to build a safe and a privacy-respecting software discovery platform on the internet. Thanks to you, our growing community of daily users, that vision is becoming a reality.
As a builder, my favorite thing to do is improve this platform, add new features and help you find the software you need. However, building and maintaining a growing database requires time and resources. Up until now, I have been bootstrapping the project out of pocket, hoping to keep the site entirely ad-free through direct sponsorships and monetized software listings.
