Techbros really went full police state just to deliver ads I wouldn't click on straight into my adblocker
You'd be surprised how many people raw dog the internet.
I have a friend that pays Google a YouTube tax every month... He tells me he wants to support the creators.
I'm just kind of sad for him... I tried to explain direct donations were a million times more effective, but he clearly just doesn't want to learn how to use an adblocker.
This guy is like 30 years old.
Why in the world would you think that someone paying to use a service is a problem? Sure direct donations are more helpful, but that doesn’t run servers to actually distribute the content you’re viewing. Your problem is completely different than what we are discussing about ad blockers.
