"not doing this to make a quick buck"
yet its a blog site absolutely new-years-eve-plastered with ads and user hostile content
- jamesmd 6y agoWhilst the ad revenue normally doesn’t even cover the hosting costs of the site - which isn’t even expensive! It does give me the motivation to write more content. If you don’t like ads feel free to use an Adblock - I use https://adblockplus.org/ https://adblockplus.org/ If you want to buy a Pi for a very low price you could even setup pihole: https://pi-hole.net/ https://pi-hole.net/ There’s nothing misleading when I say I’m not doing this to make a quick buck. I’m really not it’s just a lockdown project as there really isn’t much else to do in my spare time.
- jamesmd 6y agoAlso I do appreciate the feedback, I have tamed down the ads on the site- I’m usually behind my pihole so didn’t realise quite how annoying they were.

- kelnos 6y agoDo you not use an adblocker? The internet is generally unbearable without one. With ublock origin I don't see any ads at all on his blog.
