How have you paid them with your lifetime (whatever that means)?
Especially since you've been actively avoiding advertisements.

Occasionally I watch TV (the oldschool satellite thing) or drive around and see ads.

If they have a Patreon, I go that route sometimes... but generally: I don't. It's a hobby for me, if it's your business, it's on you to find ways how to monetize it, just like I have to do with my business :)
Not my problem to solve.
Perhaps content creators or those who host their content can find less offensive ways of monetizing?
