This will only be a waste of time, I do agree that there are a lot of ways to earn, instead of wasting any of your time and effort in a faucet, do other things which are way better and the payment is worth it, it is the best of choice. There's a lot of options, bounty campaigns, trading, investing, etc.
Yes you are righr, why do we need to invest our time to those things that aren't worth our time? There are so many things to do do earn for your precious time not just only a cent you will earn, like these bounty campaigns you will earn here and this will not waste your time and effort you will be educated here too.
for some bounties yes because not all are not paying but what if you accidentally join an unpaying one ? not only time your going to waste bu also your patience as well because bounties are known to end for about 4 to 5 months . if thats the case then id rather do faucet because atleast there are many legit faucets today and they are more easier to do but you can also earn big on them because faucets are not just giving cents but most faucet now have a twist like they have a gambling and other promotion to increase your winnings .
