To help you brainstorm, it would help before looking for ways to monetize, to establish a ballpark figure of how much money is to be made. Should this be enough to cover small leisures like a coffee or are you looking to live off this revenue entirely? How much money are you looking to make OP? how many X US dollars a month?

I don't think I'm in the position to try making a living off a service yet, I just want a little passive income. I'm still a junior developer. Maybe something like $400/month. But I despise the idea of viewing users/customers as a revenue source first, and human beings second. And I don't have a specific service/project in mind either, so feel free to be creative.
