Me too, ad blockers and all my media on Plex, etc. For me it's only when I watch live sport that I see adverts now, which I quite like, it's like a little window into what most other British people are seeing when they watch TV all week.
- wincy 5y agoPLEX really makes me feel like I’m living in an awesome future, the one I imagined as a kid on the early internet where I can watch whatever I want whenever I want. Then I go to YouTube and am grossed out by all the ads and the sponsored portions in every video.
- amelius 5y agoHow do you navigate around sites that insist on you removing the ad blocker?
- gryn 5y agoA. F12 and remove the div that says so or one of it's parent. B. find another website that offer the same thing. C. give up and temporarily disable adblock for that website until you do what you need to do and enable it again what I find really annoying is website that tangle login to their ads, so when you have adblock software enabled it just silently fails. the most recent example I encountered is https://www.edf.fr/ https://www.edf.fr/ a government owned company, I couldn't get electricity for my new house unless I disabled ublock.
- aigo 5y agoHow many of those are there? I've never encountered more than maybe one or two. Even illegal premier league streaming sites don't mind adblockers.
