And the signal to noise ratio was way better then. It's a bit weird with these folks so worried about content creators, almost like I'm browsing a different internet with them. In my internet whenever I need to find some actually useful information, I almost always go to a content creator who is not ( primarily) paid via ads. HN, reddit, SO, wikipedia etc. The vast, vast majority of ad funded content is such utter crap that I am pretty confident whatever makes ad driven business worse makes internet better as a whole.
