The two options for compensating a creator for their work online are advertisements or direct payments. There are no other functional alternatives. In a better world, more countries would have grants or universal basic income, but that’s not the world that exists right now.
What I’m saying is extremely poor people don’t have to support anyone and nobody should ever force them or make them feel guilty like you’re doing. The creator can also make their content completely or partially paywalled like what RCE is doing for example.
If you don’t like Google keeping a cut, then sign up for all the Patreons for everyone you watch.
Now this is a much better answer but some people still just can’t afford that.
Right, that’s why ads exist.
Capitalism doesn’t change the fact that giant companies fundamentally lack the right to hijack my attention and implant their bullshit in my head.
Good news, there is a subscription service to prevent that and also still pays the creators.
But they don’t exist without terrible data collection with illegal elements. Dry capitalism never ends well, mister/miss.
