    Look at lichess.org vs chess.com.

    Lichess non-profit, and is maintained by a couple of devs funded purely by donations.

    Chess.com has hundred of employees and requires tens of millions of annual revenue to break even. It has investors that expect yearly growth.

    The user experience is not much different.

    Wikipedia is another great example of a massive website that is run as a non-profit, is ad free and has stayed true to its original purpose.
