I support the creators by buying merchandise and supporting Kickstarter etc. and others support using Patreon.
With those miniscule amounts Google pays to their creators (except the top 0.01%) I estimate that what I have brought is equal to 100-1000x of what they would have gotten from ads. And I'm no saint at supporting, there's people giving 100x more than me.
