I hate ads.

That’s it. That’s all I wanted to say. Just loathe them with a burning passion. More than i do anything else in my day to day life. I feel an urge to scream it into the world every single day just how much i despise ads and whoever invented them.

I hate ads.

I can’t escape them. I feel like i’m trapped in a sick psychological torture experiment. Can’t even go outside for a walk without seeing them everywhere. This is not how human beings should live.

I hate ads.

Do the people who make ads not feel any shame for what they are doing? Stop trying to sell me your shit, i don’t want it! I don’t want to give you my money, stop trying to take it away from me!

I hate ads.

      On Android, use Adguard DNS for some system-wide effects.

      On all operating systems, use Firefox + uBlock Origin as your browser.

        👍

        Additionally I’d recommend Arkenfox, which is a portable user.js for FF which is a configurable set of browser variables (many of which are hidden in about:config) that helps block browser fingerprinting, tracking and can disable some of the awful “conveniences” that FF ships with. There’s a FF fork called LibreWolf which implements most of the Arkenfox recommended policies if you’re not comfortable meddling with files.

        I also like to use NoScript with uBlockOrigin to have more granular control.
