Thatâs what Tested.com does. There is exclusive content available to premium members.
Weâve thought of doing something whereby people give us money and get The Web as She Should Be, but always wanted it to be very rewarding and uniquely rewarding, with all sorts of cool stuff (such as the user badge, but also things like short-run books and tees), so it never quite coalesced into a product.
We did almost invent lootcrate along the way, though.
And should have, obviously.

Regs with a Sponsor badge should make TL4.
This sounds as a really good kiss idea. Gives people the possibility to support.
And some fluff like a batch or other small token of appreciation can be be nice.
Iâm not for more privileges, buying such a thing is also the other way around, as reeder/user/participant showing your appreciation.

But maybe to much on the intrinsic motivation side? Although I expect a lot of the people over here thrive on it.
I am much more inclined to buy the personally reviewed items over the stacksocial store plugs. I find reviews helpful even and would love to see more of those if referred sales do indeed generate income.
