I don't think I've ever seen a single ad on Firefox (including on any website thanks to uBlock working better on FF than anywhere else), what ads are you talking about?
- b112 4y agoThere are ads in the urlbar, ads on the newtab page, ads, ads, ads! This is on desktop.
- sp332 4y agoI was mainly thinking of the ones on the new tab page. Years ago they had "tiles" or something and I turned those off, then they added "suggestions" and they're not different but the old setting doesn't apply to them.
- LoganDark 4y agoPocket.
- sp332 4y agoMozilla owns Pocket.
- chlorion 4y agoGoogle owns the product that they are advertising in Chrome as well I think. That doesn't make it any better really! Afaik both Firefox and Chrome are advertising their own products in the browser at this point in time, so there isn't a whole lot of options to escape this. Maybe Linux distros could patch some of this stuff out or disable it via default settings at least.
- Nextgrid 4y agoI think his point is that Pocket is the piece of shit that pushes the "sponsored" articles people refer to as ads.
