Behavior rules:
Posting rules:
NSFW: NSFW content is permitted but it must be tagged and have content warnings. Anything that doesn't adhere to this will be removed. Content warnings should be added like: [penis], [explicit description of sex]. Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged.
Also, when sharing art (comics etc.) please credit the creators.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us on our matrix channel or email.

Isn't there an argument that it's better to get them to waste money sending the ads? Does blocking prevent the adverters paying? I'm not sure how that works.
I got almost everything blocked, but one thing I can't totally is podcasts, so there I skip em.
Sadly with adverts literally everywhere, there's no single solution!

There was a browser extension which both blocked ads and simulated clicks iirc. That comes with a processing power cost though.
But that only benefits the advertisement agency (eg. google ads) and doesn't do much harm to the advertiser imo
