The bigger problem is many times I have zero clue what they are advertising. No joke. Until they say the name at the end , I’m just clueless what they want to try to sell me.
This presupposes that I am paying any attention to them, rather than trying to block, skip or otherwise avoid them - which is what I am usually doing.
That doesn’t answer the question.
No, but it gave them a chance to remind everyone that they block ads. Now that the ads are gone, they have to reach out for other forms of interaction.
You can’t lose what you weren’t following in the first place.
You’re not a hero for using an ad blocker.
You’re not a good boy for ostracizing unexpected repliers.
Definitely, the biggest offenders was a youtube ad that was of a girl in front of a computer, like a streamer drinking out of a metal bottle. It was completely silent, it went on for ages and there was absolutely no brand names or anything like that at all, it wasn’t sexuall or risky. It was just the most average girl, drinking from the most average metal bottle, in the most average room. No words was spoken, nothing was shown, it was so weird.
