Advertising (2023)

I think we need to convince some content creators to stop taking ads as income and to switch to one time donations or subscriptions instead.

If the audience refuses to pay for the content creator, then the content isn't valuable in the first place.

I wrote this a few years ago. I like to re-read/re-listen to it every once in a while to check if my beliefs are still the same, and they pretty much are. I never posted this to HN because I think it's too long to ask people to read, but... today I feel like it. Enjoy, thanks
