I don't hate commercials themselves, advertisement itself for me is natural, everyone advertises. My problem is when they're unprovoked. An individual looking for a job will search for job offers, which are ads. A person who's watching a news segment about a hurricane is not looking to also buy a smell-water-bottle.

I stopped watching after the Head & Shoulders commercial

Cats would be the ultimate streamers, they get to do nothing but laying on their gaming chair bed and get showered with money.

I'm of no help and just curious, what are you trying to accomplish that the built-in manager can't do??

a long time ago I worked at an event production company, we bought a plastic card (think credit cards) full color printer to print client logos on NFC cards, and I had to test them, so I printed McLovin's driver licence on a card, and I still keep it on my wallet.

I don't want to sound like a pessimist but the Internet has never been the open grass field that the OP paint. Everytime you connect to the Internet, you're connecting to a server that some entity is providing, through a connection that another entity has set up. Even this Lemmy instance is paid by somebody's pocket. Servers and network infrastructure have always represented cost to providers. Maybe in times of olde when AOL and others offered services attached to their core service, we had services that were directly paid by the fee we paid for the connection. The owner of this Lemmy instance don't see a dime of what you pay you ISP.

I know this is not at the core of this discussion, but if content is something that entities find valuable and somehow, the owner of this instance can directly receive monetary incentive from me to keep posting these inadequate long texts, by all means, I'm happy to be part of training data. I type this while I'm bored as hell and need my upvote-provided dopamine hit. I will be the grass on the field.

Wondering, will the the option to remove ads will stick on the final version? if I buy now, will there be a separate app when the final version comes?

Boost (test version) has ads

if it's for a camping experience I'd say the amount of components could make it difficult to setup
