I like the IDEA of residual payments for content on paper. Brave browser tried this, but it didn't get enough traction from publishers of note to be viable. But I think, at least in theory, the idea of me as a consumer having some money attached to my eyeballs for the person/people who created the content I'm seeking out is a good one. Paywalls are annoying and awful, and unfortunately they seem to encourage data hording and selling practices that are unsavory. But I like the model of simply opening the browser, visiting a page, and the creators getting some royalty from that. The system we have now is too exploitative - it extracts more value that it creates.
