What's the challenge in already having this? There could be an aggregator service that has all the news sites joined with it and pays out on your visits to those news sites? Is it that it would be hard to get all news sites or content providers to accept this single one universal service?

Apple tried with Apple News+ and hasn't exactly succeeded. If they can't succeed, I fail to see how anyone else could. Maybe a few media incumbents?

They'll never do this because it dispels the illusion of independent media. It's the same reason cable news buys and shows ads: they want you to think the rest of the content isn't for sale. The truth is that the news is paid for by people who want to control the narrative, whether it's Logan Paul or Uncle Sam.

Old Flattr was something along those lines. You had to click though. (Like the old embedded Facebook likes. Are they old? Haven't seen them in a while, could be because of uBlock though.)

I really liked it. A view Blogs, Podcasts and the KeePass-Homepage had it. Then they sold to Chines investors and pivoted to god knows what.
