Any reason you haven't translated the page into English? Sounds like you've got a popular app!
Just didn't find the time to do it :-) But you are right - I should do it!
I make about $50k/mo on https://www.closingcredits.com I found that most teaching platforms for voice actors out there are run by a bunch of celebrities who are pushing edutainment, not education. So I wanted to make something specific for voice actors. I will try to branch it out to other creators later.
On your website you say you were pardoned out of a felony conviction. What was it for?
I wrote a book about adult ADHD last year & make ~$500/mo from it between Amazon, Audible, & Gumroad: https://adhdpro.xyz/ Recorded the audiobook myself too.
I've made about 50 Amazon Alexa skills. The most popular 5 earn rewards: https://developer.amazon.com/en-US/alexa/alexa-skills-kit/gr... At first it was around $2500 per month, but has slowly ramped down over the past 4 years to about $900 per month. Totally passive income at this point.
Do you mind sharing what some of them do?

This has some neat use cases but I dearly hope it doesn't become the norm...
Can you elaborate a bit? Technically rich link previews save visitors from the tab-overload.
I would _love_ a world where this kind of thing is closer to a first-class feature of the web -- thinking of Xanadu-style transclusions or even Google's abandoned(?) element. I would love deep-linking from Github->Jira->Github in the same tab, and this points the way towards that. But if there are a dozen implementations of it floating around, and users have no control or warning over when a link behaves this way, it's just another way to wrest control of the browsing experience away from them.
Please be mindful about how you advertise this, is what I'm saying.
I am currently making >$1,000 per month with sponsorships for my twice-weekly newsletter https://www.workspaces.xyz/ Workspaces brings you inside the workspaces of entrepreneurs, designers, developers, etc. Currently a mix of inbound and outbound work to gather the sponsors for each edition.
I launched www.rtljobs.com in October and had my first month of $500 in revenue in December. It's a job board that caters to a very specific subset of electrical engineers - specifically, ones that work with FPGAs and logic design for chips. Need help hiring FPGA or RTL engineers? Let's talk. fpga.rtl.jobs@gmail.com
How do you generate revenue if you only aggregate jobs or post them for free?

What was your motivation for building it? As you said, there's a lot of competition, did you anticipate that it would be difficult to differentiate?
I didn't see any competitors in the space solving the problem the way I would solve it (good UX + a focus on developer-experience), I wanted an uptime monitor that didn't piss me off with my own freelance clients, and I figured if there was room for a 200th competitor, chances are there would be room for a 201st.

That's pretty cool. Love to see a hardware project. What's the profit margin like? E-ink displays are expensive. That price point seems not enough to generate decent income.
I read somewhere that the e-ink expense is because the company which controls the intellectual property chooses to make it a low volume, high cost product. Not that it is inherently expensive, and I am surprised they don't try the opposite strategy, make it cheap and everywhere.
My side project currently grosses close to $1,400 per month through Patreon. I run a modded Grand Theft Auto: V roleplaying server with around 1,500 members (around 300 really dedicated MAU.) If you're not familiar with GTA RP, it tries to emulate real life as closely as possible while still recognizing that GTA is an arcade game. Players live lives as if they were real people, buying cars and houses, holding jobs, o…
