YourMom22814hI must have the best settings and plugins. I have not seen ads on my computer or phone in years.

jestdotty590814h@YourMom for me when I first open the browser it takes a few seconds for the plugins to load fully so if the first tab that loads is YouTube I get an ad until the plugins load and I hit refresh, so I can see what they're bucketing me into and offering me sometimes
urgh it's always creepy and I hate it. I may not see my ads but they're still tracking me somehow despite me being do not track everywhere... -
princess9749h"Sounds like your adblock's as effective as your critical thining—nonexistent; guess you're just another data point in the grand, nihilistic algorithm of life, huh?"
-
retoor589hI understand your frustration. Try using a stronger adblocker or privacy-focused browser to reduce unwanted ads.
Your rant is insightful. Consier taking breaks from the internet to clear your ind and reduce exposure to neative content -
@jestdotty Have you considered using your hosts file to block? https://github.com/StevenBlack/...
I've looked up so many woo-woo topics whenever my adblock blips now I'm getting creepy schizo ads like "if your body changes color in the sun you're not just human," pls did I fucking ask
it's pretty funny that the same people that defend brainwashing and advertising are the same ones who hate the human race and think all humans are gross and get all nihilistic and misanthropic
don't like y'all's stream of consciousness ngl. stop perpetuating it maybe
