On your main laptop or desktop device thing, do you use AdBlock? I'm ignoring mobile since the process of blocking adverts there seems a little more troublesome and uncommon.
Yes, I have it on my laptop. I first got it because my baby brother watches those kiddy YouTube videos and there were so many ads in them, I wanted to find a way to get rid of those so I found AdBlock and no more ads
Yup. No one can make me feel bad for using it because I've used some popular sites that have had malicious or annoying ads with the sound that never turns off. If a site asks me to whitelist them, then I refuse to use the site. I think we're exposed to way too many advertisements a day anyway. Especially since 99% of them don't encourage me to buy their product or service.
Yes, I certainly do. I can manage them when they're just banner or on page sides but I like the minimalist look so I never disable it. If Youtube start an Adblocker blocker I will stop atching Youtube videos. I will not go through it. 4od made it so you couldn't block their advertisements and I haven't used it for at least two years in response. Though I use uBlock Origin now so I could maybe remove them but I am not willing to try it. Unlike most people these days it seems, I still watch the telly instead of streaming services and am fine with adverts there since it's what we grew up with. On the internet they can piss right off.
I don't know why this is a question. Everybody should be using some sort of adblock software, IMO. I've been burned by ads with malware in them in the past.
There's a couple of sites that I even stopped using because they have too much "please white list me" whining on it.
lmao i hate those websites that completely block you from entering when you have adblock. glad to see others feel the same way about this crappy tactic. hope those websites lose visitors from doing this sort of thing.
yep. absolutely. and for those website who won't let you view material for using Adblock, I just easily go to another website with the same/similar information, no problem at all.
Yes, absolutely. Since becoming an indie game dev I wondered if I'd change my mind, as now I'm the one buying ads, but honestly there's just *so much garbage* out there. In the arms race of Ads vs. Ad Blockers, I will forever be on the side of the Blockers, even if it hurts creators like me
I only have it on for sites with a whole lot of annoying popups, but otherwise it's off 99% of the time because I actually support independent and smaller creators/websites
I whitelist a few sites, but for the most part on my home computer I used adblock, it's like night and day especially while playing games and watching videos.
