I will try to unblock ads on a new site one time. I want to see the whole article on one page, No click-through gallery of 27 different takes. There can be ads in the borders and margins. And maybe if I'm feeling generous one in the middle of the content. I don't want to see an unrelated pop-up video I don't want to see every paragraph separated by another ad.

If they can't play nice I block the ads, If I can't, by default, see the content without the ads, I'll find the article on another service. Everyone's literally just copying the same content back and forth with different wording.

If I can't see the content, and I can't find it on another service, I'll generally use bypass paywalls clean. If I can't see it through that I don't see it.

I'm not giving in for this b******* ads all over the place scenario. You can't even read a recipe page nowadays without an ad blocker.

You can say "bullshit" here, lemmy isn't so concerned with making everything child friendly to appease advertisers like tiktok or youtube.

Yeah I have open requests for speech to text to give me an easy way to turn on/off censoring. Unfortunately, until somebody does that it's better to censor in places that I don't need to censor then to not censor in places that need it.
