Well companies do need to make money, yeah

Nah, they have enough money. They won capitalism. Billions in profit. Fuck advertisements. Directly support the creators in your life.

That turns out to be a lot more expensive, personally I'd get a lot less useful content/content I enjoy. I do chip in to a few patreons etc, but realistically someone like Karl Jobst or Levy Rozman or many other creators that I use to plug a 10 minute hole between tasks would likely get nothing from me because £10/mo is a lot for maybe 1-2 hours use a month.

Companies don't need to make infinite money. That's just a weird incentive that modern corporations seem to be chasing and burning everything down around them to achieve.

The Stock Market. It's an inherent consequence of being a company that rapidly filled a new niche and being publicly traded. A private company wouldn't have grown as quickly, but could in theory, transition into a steady state monetary model. The investors expect the same quarterly reports every single time and will not be satisfied with dividends. The founders might have pushed out long ago and executives who make the decisions have no long term commitment to the company, so they have no reason not to crash the company into the ground trying to wring every ounce out of their customer base.
