There is patreon-supported or similar. There are also ad blockers that click the ads too to destroy your tracking profile. I'm not sure if they trigger click-through statistics for payment purposes.

Patreon is just another "paywall"

Only if it's an actual wall. A lot of YT channels and even free games are supported by Patreon and similar.
