I'm very tired* of the assumption that the Web needs advertising in some form to continue to exist as a widely accessible service. I will not accept this false dichotomy of ads or paywalls.

1. Everywhere we fucking look we have ads and paywalls. See: media streaming services, the cinema, print newspapers and magazines...
2. Please, I beg you, go involve yourself in some kind of co-operative, collective, mutual aid, community organisation, literally anything that isn't just transaction/exploitation based, and consider that maybe there are other ways to exist.

* tired in the sense of exhausted and weary, and also in the sense of mind-numbingly bored by.
