Fuck the adtech industry, too. Fuck corporate consolidation and Big Tech. It’s absolutely destroying anyone but clickbait farmers; this problem is bigger than just generative ML.
I’ve seen a few creators say they don’t know how they’re going to continue. They can’t out compete spammers, clicks and views basically make them nothing, no one seeks anything beyond algorithms anymore.
Hence I’ve been throwing more money at Patreon or similar artist subscriptions recently, even if in short bursts.
