I posted this question because I once saw a tweet that said something like:

“If you use adblock, you don’t care about creator’s point blank”

What is your opinion on this? Do you agree with them?

    The “If you use adblock, you don’t care about creator’s point blank” is such a stupid argument and complete misunderstanding of the economics. There are other far more efficient ways to support creators than watching ads. Watching an hour of ads will generate a few cents for the creators and orders of magnitude more for the monopolistic platforms that host the content. The ads model doesn’t fairly reward creators. I guarantee I give more to creators (via various means) than the misdirected “creator saviour” that wrote that ridiculous quote.
