As someone else has said it is publicly funded, it's the same with Australia's ABC news [1]. When you watch it on TV, I guess there are ads for its own shows but other than that they are not allowed run ads. Funnily there are ads shown on its stories on apple news, I always wondered if that was in some violation of the Australia Broadcasting Corporation Act [2].

heyo! you responded to a comment I made two months ago complimenting my personal site (https://concourse.codes & https://borice.exposed) and asking if I made the pixel art myself. I'm not sure how HackerNews notifications work so I'm just seeing it and wanted to say thank you, and also no, sadly, I did not make the pixel art myself. I am learning how as a separate endeavor, but in this case I fine-tuned midjourney on a set of windows 98 icons and then fed it photos of various things that I wanted to convert to pixel art. It works quite well and is fun tbh. anyways, thanks again & hope you're doing well <3

This reply was unexpected but a nice surprise :)

I remember your site! I really like the consistent visual language, even if you didn't make the pixel art, at the very least they go well with your site. I entered my email on your other site, feel free to reach out or whatever, also this is my site https://akst.io

Hope you're doing well as well!

Yeah, I hope npr is still funded amidst the funding cut by the government.
