Even on those days people weren't exactly giving free money, because faucets were sponsored by Google Ads which was a profitable source of income for faucet owners and allowed many of them offering decent rewards to users in satoshis. Sadly, the industry was instantly destroyed once Google banned their ads from every faucets. The secondary ads companies weren't enough anymore to keep faucets profitable for owners and users at same time. Practically every faucets of those old times were shutted off, with freebitco.in exception and maybe few others, while new websites were created, but under a new concept where users have to create personal accounts on every faucets sites, with login, password and email details. And rewards aren't paid directly to micro wallets anymore, because it takes too long to earn a single satoshi now.
Faucets have become worthless. But if it wasn't for Google ban, I believe faucets would be still a possibility nowadays for micro earners and newbies, as they were an alternative back then.

Faucets were supported by ads. Back in the early days, they used to pay a decent amount of coins to claimers. But they've stopped doing so after market prices went all the way to the moon. Nowadays, faucets are virtually non-existent thanks to governments' regulatory pressure against crypto/Blockchain tech. The few remaining faucets are paying a very small amount of coins, making them a complete waste of time.
You're better off seeking a job that pays in crypto or joining a high-paying bounty campaign. As I've said before, there's no such thing as "free lunch". There's always a catch. Crypto was never about making money anyways. Who knows how market prices will look like a few years from now? Just my opinion
