> I don’t like ads, but I think the only ethical options are posting to avoid them (preferably direct to artists) or watching ads
I think that ethical position is weakened by the fact many ads are links to scams and unethical things. You aren't just supporting creators by watching adverts, you're also potentially exposing yourself to bad faith actors.
