A friend of a friend owns and runs google ads on linux.die.net (linux manpages). It pays his mortgage.

But I'd wager that the audience of people looking for an article on a command, and the people that want a manpage up on a non linux device (a second screen, a phone?) are mostly disjunct, and that the latter is far larger.

I never realized there were ads on this website. Always though it was someone doing it for the love of it.

They certainly do it for the love. And the mortgage.
