I'm willing to pay a monthly subscription to help keep uBO fully functional. If I pay a subscription to a service like youtube to remove ads then I am only ad free on youtube. Whereas uBO blocks ads on everything.
Regardless whatever we’d be willing to pay, there’s no way for uBO to effectively route the collected funds out to all publishers (also I guarantee there’s gonna be a fight of “views on my site are worth more than theirs”), and so the cat and mouse game will continue forever.
