Why are there ads?

Talky inc. is a small team that maintains the website and infrastructure required to keep Talky going. The costs to maintain this site are significant, and unfortunately we’re unable to afford to pay for this upkeep. Instead of shuttering Talky, we’ve chosen to include advertisements to help subsidize these costs, keeping Talky free for all of our users. You can learn more about Talky and the team behind it here.
