I agree I’d never do it or make a platform that does it. But millions of casual game users do choose to view ads instead of paying $2 for the ad-free version. Implicitly they’re making the choice that their time is worth very little. Wonder if made explicit they’d choose differently, or if it’s just a matter of the default setting (ads by default, pay to remove vs no ads be paid to watch).

I'd like to think that 21 sats won't always be worth a mere 2¢. One day they may have the equivalent purchasing power of $21 today...
