i don’t defend targeted ads since they are bad (i use uBlock)

but what monetization system is a bit more ethical than targeted ads but can last unlike donations

how would you solve that issue

My Opinion

well it is make that there are version which you own but if you pay for 1 the one after it you pay again for that new version but with a small discount

    Non-targeted ads can also be an option.

    You buy a fixed space on a certain page for a period of time and pay the owner. The way it worked in the early days of the internet.

      Imagine if ads were related to the content of the page? Like, if I look up a webpage about video games, and get ads for… Video Games? I made the mistake of looking up a particular eGPU a while ago, and now when I’m looking up kayaks online, I get ads for eGPUs.
