Wasn´t there a lot of Discussion regarding "Small Stakes no longer beatable!" ?
Rake being unbeatable is a perception.
Yes, it sucks if I have to pay $2 to win $1, but that doesn't mean you're losing $1. Simply means on a $3 transaction, you only get $1 of it.
In my opinion, getting that $1 simply for clicking buttons and enjoying an evening is still worth it. Rake is just the price you gotta pay to play.
When online poker first started, there was no rakeback. You simply paid what you had to in order to get in the game. Rakeback came along as a way to entice players to sites, not a way to be profitable. If you can only be profitable with rakeback, you're just not that good a player.
Play where the most traffic is, or spread your roll around a bit and multi table across different platforms until you find one that suites your needs.
