I'm upvoting because this should actually be unpopular. Intrusive ads are bad but less intrusive ones let you know who the patrons are of the otherwise highly expensive services you enjoy. That all of this gets paid for with ad money is nothing less than a miracle.
If you don't want to see ads then don't give them your notice! I like being informed when new products go to market.
This should be an opt in service
Yep, like if you want to know about new phones coming out or whatever other topic of interest, subscribe to one of the myriad magazine websites that obsess over that kind of thing. Ads for that stuff showing up everywhere including our damn physical mailbox is a public nuisance, and a waste of resources.
I think I've found maybe two things through ads that I probably wouldn't have found on my own and actually wanted
So not worth it lmao
