Is it true that affiliate commissions keep getting lower over time? How do affiliates cope with that?

In many programs, commissions have dropped over the years. Some big companies reduce rates as they grow because they don’t rely as much on affiliates. This can make it harder to earn the same amount as before. To deal with this, many affiliates look for better-paying programs or focus on products with higher commission rates. Some switch to promoting digital products or services that offer recurring commissions. Others build email lists or blogs so they’re not starting from scratch every time. Diversifying helps too. Relying on just one company or product can be risky. Are there any strategies you’ve seen or heard about that help affiliates keep earning even when rates change?
