So far for every project that I care of, creator, software or news, I pay for. Everything else, like YouTube or Social Media are mostly alive because of my content or my user data. If that's not enough then I won't really miss it. I grew up with much smaller communities and so far every site that was complaining about AdBlock, also wasn't worth disabling it. For some streams I turn off adblocker once in a while until I can't take the ads anymore. Sites that complain undervalue sharing of articles, a click doesn't cost them as much as a possible ads viewer would gain them.
