  When over 30% of your userbase is adblocking, it's not worth it. Your users will complain to you, not the adblockers. They don't even understand what's going on. Asking your users to whitelist the site doesn't work, either.

    Pro-tip: Lazy-load the imprint link and support form so that these adblocking bastards cannot annoy you. /s

      I got bitten by this on https://about.gitlab.com/contact/ https://about.gitlab.com/contact/ I thought "hey, the Newsletter and Security Notices icons aren't clickable", opened a ticket, and found that the input and submit elements that should be under those icons were being blocked by disconnect.me :)

  How about eschewing shitty ad networks and actually delivering relevant ads?
  • fwn 10y ago
    We would not have this debates if this were as easy to deliver as it is demanded.

    It's not like people writing ad filtering lists care if ads are relevant or not.

  It seems like a lot of the "Show HN" shares do that kind of thing...from domains that my work blocks. If it sounds really cool I'll load it up on my phone. Otherwise, that's a great way to make me decide "not worth my time" and move on to the comment thread.
