Wondering how much of the Lemmy user base wouldn’t use an adblocker. If you do use one what other blocking do you use to circumvent data collection, YouTube and reddit front ends and things alike?

    The more intrusive and annoying the ads become, the more people will retaliate. This is war. eventually we will smash out those annoying ads. somehow. There must be some other more civilized pleasant method for companies to make profit. This is getting out of hand.

      I mean, there are other civilized pleasant methods for companies to make profit. For users to pay.

      That’s why lots of places now have an ad-free subscription option. If you really want to smash out ads, pay for the ad-free subscription service.
