I'm thinking a lot about RSS/Atom, how great email is to read content, and the intersection of these ideas with the W3C WebMonetization spec.

I think there's an opportunity to do novel things in this space, and LLMs might help in terms of providing summaries that people actually want.

I'm building this for me, but I think it could be useful for other people, too.

TIL that there is a W3C WebMonetization spec - thanks for sharing.

Taking a look, it seems quite underwhelming[0] :( Lack of monetization on the web gave us the ad-driven content model that LLMs are now hovering up.

Have there been any other proposals for monetization?
