My pihole helps quite a bit, but some still sneak in. I had to use a VPN to get a cheap rate for Youtube premium which helps a ton. Instagram ads and mail ads are unavoidable still.
I genuinely believe ads are a form of pollution. The pollution they spread is psychological but it’s pollution nonetheless, ads exist to make us feel bad about something enough to make a purchase and why shouldn’t things that exist to make us feel bad be removed from our environment?
I am so sick of ads being everywhere. It’s such a mental load.
same. fortunately with all the apps I use, I havnt seen an ad anywhere in ages, not on youtube, ig, web, anywhere

mail ads? on instagram, i use instander (android)
Yes, at least in the US, we get a ton of ads via mail (post). It’s a huge pain. I use iOS and I don’t think there are any Instagram alternative apps.
oh i remember, i get tons of email ads, theyre just in a separate tab lol. so i never see them
I mean physical mail, lol. You go out to your mailbox and have a handful of crap that you have to throw away.
oh yeah that too lol
