Have joined hundreds of airdrops and have learned something which I would like to share with you as many seems to waste their time on shityy airdrops which tbf aren't even worthy of being called airdrops.
Significant value airdrops did not ask for much info or tasks.
These projects stayed true to what 'airdrop' really is. Only asked for the address so they can send you token, tho sometimes there were requirements to prevent sybil entries.
No follow to tens of social links and other social media bs, didn't attach $ value, no sign up, no lucky winners, no referral shite, and oh, no KYC.
I share your point of view, I also used to participate in hundreds of airdrops, but actually I got tired, so I ceased doing that. Now I am focused on bounties more, and I want to try ambassador program, it means that you promote projects by doing posts or videos about them, so you become an early partner and then get bonuses, but it requires a lot of time.
