Though most of the ad's I see have a handsome margin added to the product that I neither want nor if I did I could find somewhere on ebay cheaper.
- naibafo 10y agoMy problem (not a problem for me though) with ads is, that I do not trust them at all anymore. Even if I would see an interesting looking ad advertising a cheap 6700K I would think to myself, that they must have paid for the ad somehow and I can probably find it even cheaper somewhere else.
- hackits 10y agoI have to agree I've had exactly the same situation. Wish I could say otherwise. The only thing today that directed me to specific products and services are sites like hackernews, youtube channels like Eli the Computer Guy, and Louis Rossmann. I've donated about $500AUD to different youtube gaming review channels (because I like their content). I've donated to schools and donated my time with teaching programming. Though do I trust a advertisement GIF or Ads in the middle of a youtube video (hell no!). Deep down I do want advertisement to get better and I DO want them to target me with meaning full advertisement. Though it still is a game of pop-ups in the middle of the screen of Skype, News, Web-sites all wanting to TELL me about how special they're.
