Big brain time: watching ads in a language you neither understand nor have any intention of learning instead of using adblock

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Adblock doesn't block ads that are embedded in the content though, and these are usually not in a language that you don't understand, unless you are zoning out and watching random videos :D

Who tf enjoys watching ads?

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I generally don't, but if it's in my target language, I might as well watch it, since that's additional practice for listening to native content.

Its a meme about "targeted ads"

It has nothing to do with targeted ads, did you even read the text on the meme linked?

[–] Rooki@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Its a meme about targeted ads for me. This could be literally from Youtube itself. Begging you to tell them in what language you want your ads.
