I use the web without an ad blocker, and I don't personally think it's too bad. Sidebar and topbar ads have been common since the 00s. But to be honest I think it's a combination of the websites I visit, and that I refuse to use sites with intrusive ads anyway. Anything with a popover ad, I just leave the site straight away Luckily most of the websites that are covered in intrusive ads are just tabloid/clickbait crap sites anyway, so I feel like I use ads as an indication of the site's quality.
