No I meant straight up paying for services through money, not selling yourself as a product. The former is better than letting ads hound you, and in my mind, better than being forced to rent out your system's hardware in exchange.
I would honestly prefer more services and content creators asking for reasonable payments and more integration of multiple, seamless, international payment options into sites and services. Currently a major reason I don't pay for some services I otherwise would is because the payment process is very clunky or downright broken.

TBF, most of the discussion around this is about replacing ad-funded models with browser-based mining, not replacing direct payments. > I don't pay for some services I otherwise would is because the payment process is very clunky or downright broken. This is a great reason to look harder at in-browser mining. Electrical utilities have far lower payment processing costs than SAAS payment providers like Stripe. They also provide a way of aggregating many microtransactions in a way that credit-card networks actively try to prevent.
