Not just the mod creators, anyone that makes a modpack available on their platform can get a cut of the ad revenue despite the fact that most of them are kids that will throw mods into a folder without caring about conflicts. This has the knock-on effect everyone expects, where the big creators only get richer while small creators don't get as much exposure because modpack people are siphoning money away for throwing everything popular into a single convenient file. Want a food mod other than Pam's Harvestcraft? TOO FUCKING BAD!Apparently Curseforge and Modrinth now have creator payouts and will pay mod creators money based on ad revenue they get.
ETA: If you ever wonder where the ego of Vazkii and such comes from, it's exactly this. As much as they like to virtue signal about anything and everything, it's all about the money to them and nothing else.
