Compensation does not have to be only monetary. In stack exchange & wikipedia, the contributors are rewards with points & special titles.

While true, this thread was about paying for the "old internet" which implies monetary compensation.

Stack Exchange is a private, profitable business. Wikimedia Foundation collects a hundred million dollars in donations each year and spends 40% of it to keep functioning. The contributors are effectively volunteers supporting these companies, which is a lot different than running your own site or channel and pumping content into it regularly.
