Yeah and then what happens in 2026 onwards? No one's going to put in the work to create high quality original content when they can't monetize it..

- beej71 1y agoA few of us will. :) I give my stuff away for free with no ads. Maybe the web will get small again.
- xboxnolifes 1y agoIt will be small again. Less high quality content in the future is the current path.
- beej71 1y agoI think there will be less high quality content, but a greater density of high quality content.
- Ferret7446 1y agoWhy not? If high quality original content is valuable, then people will pay for it. If no one will pay for it, then is it really valuable? And in any case, your hypothesis is disproved by the existence of free software, to say nothing of amateurs [1] in all fields. Clearly, people are willing to make valuable things without monetary incentive. [1]: a person who engages in a pursuit on an unpaid rather than a professional basis.
