Idc about ads as much as their duplicitous censoring, shadow banning and shadow deleting posts. You need to recheck your posts in a private tab periodically to see which ones have been censored to the outside world, as they try to dupe the users to believe its still up on their end. Scumbags. Its not a new thing either, but considering how heavy handed they’ve been, I suspect spez will be all too happy to devolve the platform further under this new ‘climate’ we’re all in. Never trust Reddit. I have faith in Lemmy to succeed it. Decentralized platforms are the only way forward for unimpeded free speech.
steal your food, then toss you table scraps
So generous of them
Yeah, but old browser extension has let me block all advertisers (and all of them are equally my most-hated) forever, so reddit is cordially invited to get fucked. And they can construe that as ‘encouraging violence’ all they like.
Straight Luigi’d.
What a stupid idea. I want to block advertisers forever, not just for a year lol. And I can actually do that by installing an ad blocker.
I love that my first post is to say that I don’t give a solitary airborne fuck about Reddit and their ads because I’m here instead. I hope they enjoy the enshittification all the way down their throats.
Welcome to a non-centralized and controlled website!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen an ad on Reddit Thank baby jebus for ad blockers.
I doubt that’s true. Plenty of posts are ads, without being marked as such. They just do it without paying reddit
they do have it, just not excessive like most sites.
On their mobile app is one every few posts. I’ve seen as many as one every three in the main feed. It was simply unbearable.
I meant I never see ads because I use an ad blocker.
my ublock lets me block all the advertisers for more than a year on reddit
considering what reddit has become, im glad i had adblock as well.
Finally give the second most hated advertisers a chance for once!
The nerds lost the internet. It’s a fucking Kmart now.
Still selling as much of your data as they can though, regardless of how many He Get Us ads you see
He gets us?
Getting enough money from those sweet LLM training data deals.
This is the exact ad I thought of lol
“All of them? All of them. All of them is good.”
I’ve blocked all ads on reddit on my own terms, and have actually gone ahead and deleted my 15 year old account too 👍 They can fuck off
Does Reddit have ads?
I use NextDNS and the (revanced) official Android app, so I haven’t seen an ad on my phone in years.
Lemmy let’s me not think about advertisers.
