Cororations found out long ago that most people value a couple bucks a month more than they value a 1-3 minute chunk of their time a few times an hour while they’re being entertained.
Listen, pay me a dollar and I’ll show you a cool mind trick.
Oh, you dont have/want to spend a dollar? Or you’re skeptical of the trick? Well, you could just listen to me him a tune for a few seconds and then I’ll show you the trick. In fact, you don’t even have to listen, just let me hum a tune in your presence. Just for a few seconds. Then I’ll show the trick anyway.
Use patreon, liberapay, and open collective to pay the creator directly, then aggressively block ads. Thats what I do.
The point is to give creators money, not advertisers
This is the way - avoid ads as much as possible, and support environments/services/creators that respect your privacy directly with money.
The point is, you’re an exception.
