I would love to have a way to pay for most websites but experience shows that the genius MBAs get your subscription fee and then start tacking on ads and tracking anyway. So fuck them. ad blockers, proxies, pihole, vpns, whatever you have to do.
Google gave people that but ~nobody used it (it was called Google Contributor). Many similar stories over the years. People overwhelmingly choose ad-supported services over paid ones. Even when "MBAs" don't add extra ads on top or whatever other objection you have, it's all been tried before and failed every time.
