Man, that's really cool. I love memes. I've always wanted to do some kind of a browser based meme maker I could either monetize with ads or a nominal ($10/yr) payment to remove ads.
Quite impressive that you could do this with a meme creator!
For some time I wanted to make browser-based utils/time wasters in the same vein (think Photopea but simpler, or .io games) - to generate some passive income, even if it'd be $100 a month or so.
