You can't just pretend like the key fact isn't relevant.
Platforms don't grow on trees.
Somebody has bills to pay and its up to them how to decide how to pay them. If you don't like their decision, find another platform or moan incessantly about it.
- npteljes 5y agoI know the realities and I don't think this factor is irrelevant - hosting can cost a lot. I bemoan ads specifically, because I think as they are and were, they are a net negative for humanity. Having an addiction fueling platform in exchange for it doubles down on this negativity. I'm thinking where ads are the answer, or the main enabler of content, then the content itself is questionable, is what I'm trying to get at.
