Give the people doing good stuff and social proofed a livable wage. Just print fucking money, don't even tax, do I have to kill every economist with my bare hands ?

I’d argue part of this is true because of minimum wage and wealth disparity.

When you have a healthy disposable income, it feels more reasonable to give out some donations for good online content. But that’s not the case for a lot of people now.

It sucks because monetization models definitely influence the types of content we get. For instance, freemium video game models with cash shops are better for our current wealth gap, while a large set of consumers having extra cash through the year is much better for expensive, well-produced singleplayer games.
