Are they? They try to sell me Nitro at least once every month, which only gives me the impression that they're desperate to increase their revenue stream to make ends meet.

Selling things is usually how you make money, no?
With an internet business it's usually with ads
That much nitro is bound to be bad for their engines.
Once per month is very few times.
My podcasts try to sell me stuff 5 times an hour, radio even more. Being nagged to pay for a service you use once a month is basically silence.
It seems like you fundamentally misunderstand how advertising works.
