Have publishers even considered selling a subscription without ads? I realize it would cost more. I would really like to subscribe to a newspaper that has readers as its only customers.

I think the closest anyone comes to that is substack

You can subscribe to all the publications out there, but it's the same worthless clickbait drivel whether you're paying or not

I wish, unfortunately it appears that being willing to pay for things makes your eyeballs even more valuable.
