I only visit 20-30 sites over a week that I feel obliged to unblock as I visit them weekly and they don't offer a subscription for an ad free experience. If it helps them in anyway, I'm all for it. 3 of the admins I have managed to email questions to have also declined me sending them money or buying them a beer/coffee via paypal
I'd love if every small website had a tip jar, buy them a coffee every week/fortnight/month
- skinnymuch 6y agoThis doesn’t sound like what you were describing as a strategy before. Now you’re saying you have the same sites unblocked. In your previous comment, you advised that if the content is good, you can unblock ads then. That is what I said is a common trope, but is an inconvenience, hard to remember, and likely not done by many if any people. You don’t appear to do it either. Same with your tip jar. You say small sites which isn’t wrong. However in your case you’re only topping the same 2 dozen sites you go to. Not every site or app has the same engagement necessities. If a site can be visited much less but is very helpful, it’ll likely get much less tip money than a less helpful but regularly visited site that gets your dopamine going. I’m not saying this as fact. It’s something I believe could be true with no backing.
- sunsipples 6y agoI think you might have be mixed up for a poster further up stream and I am getting both response?
- skinnymuch 6y agoYes. I assumed you were the poster I responded to initially saying to whitelist sites if you like them. My apologies.
