The downvotes are maybe because you replied to a question of “is xyz still broken?” with “you don’t really need xyz.”
For me it was kind of an annoying place to make that point.
Many people use of ad block really more to protect from the surveillance aspects of ads than their aesthetics. Ads on big sites don’t really look terrible.
- hombre_fatal 6y agoI also find generalizations from such unlikely scenarios a bit annoying. You (poster above) have to consistently visit the worst sites on the internet, and so many that whitelisting doesnt suit you, to conclude the adblocking isn’t useful. If that really describes what you do online, then you need some self-awareness over how little you have in common with everyone else and then temper your epiphanies accordingly.
- cactus2093 6y agoWell, appreciate the explanation at least. I thought I was saying "even if xyz is still broken, I find abc to be a better solution anyway". Guess my views are too radical for this crowd though.
