Have used AdSense on latextemplates.com for 7 years. I wouldn't call it "good money" but it's a welcome addition to my income. Haven't noticed any drop the last several months, but 4 years or so ago there was a huge drop when they updated their algorithm.

I dislike Google and would love to move to something else, but everything I've tried is so much worse so I've just been stuck with it. Any suggestions?

You could consider making direct deal with advertisers or using affiliate marketing.

I've heard good things about Ezoic. Haven't personally tested it however.

I have Ezoic on my site and make about $70/mo. Overall goal is to get rid of ads altogether, but before that I'm looking at MediaVine and/or AdThrive

ezoic is good but they still use at least a portion of google under the hood.

This is correct
