Most of the things I read online, I would probably not be willing to pay much for. For example, for “news” opinion pieces, my analogy is to a long form version of something one might find posted on a bulletin board at a coffee shop. Sure it is entertaining to skim and might be vaguely informative, but it isn’t really journalism and if someone tried to charge me to read it, I’d happily move on.

I don’t expect everything to be free, I expect things to be priced in line with their value. Listening to somebody’s rant on something—I mean, therapists charge for it!
