Is there a way to monetize other than by subscription? $1/y is both too little (for the operator) and too much (for the user) at the same time.

Sure, value for value.
I could form a business entity, open a PO box, create an <insert payment processor here> account, and accept value from those who use the service. People could pay whatever the service is worth to them. Some are in circumstances such that they're unable to pay. Those with means may be able to contribute more - it's whatever the service is worth to them. Value for value.
