Comment on To survive the AI age, the web needs a new business model
swelter_spark@reddthat.com 6 days agoI think websites should be paid for by the person or organization that owns them, personally. I don’t want to be subsidizing businesses that I have no role in or control over, or paying for other people to engage in their hobbies.

Can you explain this “I don’t want to be subsidizing businesses that I have no role in or control over, or paying for other people to engage in their hobbies.”
I dont get why you are against giving money to companies you dont control only on the web, you surely do it a ton in everyday life. In regards to the hobby, how do you know its their hobby and even if it was its not your place to decide if they should be paid for their time. If they’re making something thats good enough for you to want to consume it then you should pay them for it.
