I have a free social network app that makes $122/month on Patreon[0] (from 43 patrons). Userbase is about 3.4k with ~200 DAU. I offer in-app recognition and the ability to vote monthly on what features I work on. I won't be quitting my job, but it's nice to not have to pay for servers and marketing out of pocket.

Thanks for sharing real world numbers. And congrats, sounds like you have a success on your hands (not every project needs to be a home run, and like you said, it's great to have it be a source of income rather than a drain).
