Flattr style micro-payments doled out based on impressions of a page (or their evil twin, ads) seem more honest than subscribing a la patreon. (I subscribe to a lot of creators with patreon.) I frequently hear and read people not wanting to sponsor some youtube channel or podcast they consume for hours a week because it's "not that good". If you spent the time there, they deserve your money. I really feel for creators who produce popular material, but don't get as much remuneration as content that people are prouder of liking.
