I'm okay with him earning money to live, but put ads is absolutely not something to do. Donate to him, etc. But you shouldn't use an app with ads

Been this way for many years. Ads don't bother me. And if its continuous help, then we roll with it. But someday I may do the thing.

It's not purely the ads that bother me, it's the company behind it, to integer ads you have to use google, meta scripts. Big problem for privacy
