God yes the ads, I just hate how every corner of our existence is being filled with ads. And if it's not an official ad or "sponsored post" it's someone trying to sell stickers on their Etsy or a t shirt bot spamming all and every subreddit. I just really hope those sort of things don't invade here.

    If you have been using an adblocker for years and turn it off for a moment, you really see how fucking bad it has become. It's almost like a dystopian movie.

    An advertisment filled dystopian movie? That's the exact opposite of my new movie, "Barbie", only in theaters July 21st.

    What, no product placement, even? But how will I know what kind of flavored seltzer will make me pretty if I don’t see what Barbie drinks?!

    It's going to be Barbie-que sauce flavored.

    …well played, lol. Although now I’m imagining liquid smoke flavor in a cold beverage, and I feel extremely conflicted about it.

    I use DNS black holes, adblockers, and I host all of my own media content. I rarely, if ever, see ads.

    I will just stop viewing content if I have to go back to watching ads, it's that simple. I can't do it.

    I can't even watch TV with my parents on the Tivo anymore. Even fast forwarding through the ads is tedious and makes me angry.

    Yeah this is what has amazed me since joining Lemmy is the non existence of ADS. It feels weird that I'm not seeing constant ads disguised as posts here.

    I have been bouncing between here and the Reddit official app and holy hell the Reddit app is so shockingly bad with ads that I can only manage a few mins on it.
