Your Reduxx Weekly Roundup Is Here!

The founder of Drag Queen Story Hour UK was found to be raising funds for the funeral of a convicted pedophile... and more news.

Happy Sunday, Reduxx Readers!

As a new week creeps around the corner, we are back to get you caught up on all the stories that will have you wanting to live in a tent in the woods with no internet access whatsoever.

This past week, Reduxx launched a small ad grid on both mobile and desktop versions of the site. Long-time readers may have noticed the difference, though we took extra care to ensure they were as unobtrusive as possible. These ads do not track you, and have been specially filtered by an agency to ensure you never see anything inappropriate.

This is a trial for us, and we may choose to remove the ads in the event we don’t like them! But the opportunity for pursuing another revenue stream for Reduxx was an exciting one, as it may really help us expand our operations in 2023.

Despite the amount of content we get out, our incredible traffic, and the massive exposure we have, Reduxx operates on a shoestring. Individual donations from the people who care about our work currently and always will comprise the overwhelming majority of our budget.

Have feedback about our trial? Leave a comment below! If you ever see anything of interest in our ad columns, feel free to click on them knowing that it helps a truly independent outlet grow.

Without further ado… On to the news!
