A way to crowdsource patronage - everything/everybody seems to be asking for subscriptional support (Patreon or the like)

I would love to support a lot of the creators I know more personally ... but if I were to add-up even the $1/mo they each ask for, I'd be into the $100s a month easily ... so I live with the ads they have

Something a la Brave Browser's tokens, though, would be great - pitch, say, $50 into a "patronage bucket", and then pay a penny for every page/video/podcast/song/etc you read/watch/listen to OR allow the ads to load/display/stream
