Incidentally I started paying $5/ month each to two micropayment platforms. The first Coil[1] uses Interledger micropayments protocol, which is cool because it is easy to both monetise your content, and is decentralized in terms of payment providers and receivers. I get payed into an uphold wallet, in Fiat currency. It pays out based on time on page mostly and has Imgur, Newgrounds and Twitch using it, and lots of blogs. Downside is for mobile where you can't run browser plugins you have to use their custom FF fork browser Puma. The second one Scroll[2] is a centralised one. That has bigger names attached and removes ads from things like The Atlantic and Bloomberg. It shows you a breakdown of where your monthly fee is split. I love not receiving ads, and I hope that this tech pans out, but I am only doing it as an experiment so far. Personally I would prefer Coil and its underlying protocol to succeed. But it is highly possible these all fail. At least I am avoiding ads, while still funding content. It shows promise. - [1] https://coil.com/ https://coil.com/ - [2] https://scroll.com/ https://scroll.com/
