I pay my ISP. That should ensure I can communicate with anyone else paying their ISP.
As for content monetization, I host my own site without ads, solely to spread my own views. I take enjoyment in that.
I watch YouTube with uBlock Origin on my laptop, and NewPipe on my phone. If I were forced to watch ads, I'd stop watching. And I wouldn't pay for YouTube, because I believe it is much larger than its competition, and don't want to contribute to a monopoly.
I pay for Nebula, and when the creator also posts there, that is where I watch their videos.
