No - I'm referring to clickbait, chumboxes or low-quality articles whose primary purpose is to show ads - the content itself is only there to lure you into seeing ads and is universally hated even by freemium customers.
I suspect that there's a huge amount of content like this which subsidizes the platforms, ad networks and various middlemen.
Citation needed, because this sounds more like preference projection of someone who prefers subscription content than the majority of actual ad-subsidized content consumers. Again, the type of customer who pays for a subscription is going to consume vastly different content than the freemium customer.
