    The “If you use adblock, you don’t care about creator’s point blank” is such a stupid argument and complete misunderstanding of the economics. There are other far more efficient ways to support creators than watching ads. Watching an hour of ads will generate a few cents for the creators and orders of magnitude more for the monopolistic platforms that host the content. The ads model doesn’t fairly reward creators. I guarantee I give more to creators (via various means) than the misdirected “creator saviour” that wrote that ridiculous quote.
