A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

My pihole helps quite a bit, but some still sneak in. I had to use a VPN to get a cheap rate for Youtube premium which helps a ton. Instagram ads and mail ads are unavoidable still.
mail ads? on instagram, i use instander (android)
Yes, at least in the US, we get a ton of ads via mail (post). It's a huge pain. I use iOS and I don't think there are any Instagram alternative apps.
oh i remember, i get tons of email ads, theyre just in a separate tab lol. so i never see them
I mean physical mail, lol. You go out to your mailbox and have a handful of crap that you have to throw away.
oh yeah that too lol
