I don't know why people evangelize others using adblock. The more mainstream it becomes, the more likely websites use effort to stifle their use.

Just let's keep it on the dl so we benefit.

ublock does a good job of blocking ad block blockers at least on major sites.

I want businesses relying on ads to die though. Doesn't work if too few people use adblockers.

Whats your solution for covering hosting costs?

[–] Azzu@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Donation, federation (spreading the load so that a single person's hosting cost are easy for them to cover), non-intrusive premium features, public funding
