The key thing that seems to be missing is $1 from how many people?

$1 from one individual involves a lot of overhead to complete a transaction (for your average person), but $1 from N people who each require a minimum of interaction can make much more economical sense. This can be multiplied by getting $1 from N people every X days.

Per the original question there's fairly little I'd be willing to provide to a single individual at $1, but in aggregate (high N, reasonable X) there's a number of viable options (mostly in the software realm).

Sounds like you've seen earn.com and the emails they send users. For $1 sign-up and get some crypto.... the monetary value here is crazy low. The tasks they seem to set probably take ~5mins which translates into $12 p/h... so you've got to really be into crypto.

Service am I willing to provide for $1? Watch my favorite Netflix shows and give you a thumbs up or down :).
