Dang, I just started playing a couple weeks ago. But I guess that means I made it just in time to be one of the people who stop playing in solidarity!

There are other wordle sites BTW so it's not like you have to stop playing the game, just don't use NYT's version.

Are there other versions of connect or strands? I don't mind not playing those, but having alternatives would be nice.

https://connections.swellgarfo.com has the connections from nyt, and even lets you play all the previous ones. Same with https://connectionsplus.io

I play Wordle with an ad blocker, is that good enough?

It doesn't get them money, but it still registers as engagement with the audience which I think is really the only true metric.

No. Don't cross the picket line.
