Was just thinking how nice it is to be on social media and not be bombarded with ads!
Its amazing how this is the first site in years that I dont need to install blockers or scroll through bs or be so cynical with what I read.
Fellow Australians, rejoice in this little space we have from corporate bombardment
As someone who works with the advertisers, any concessions to them simply starts the process that snowballs into a nightmare scenario. There’s just too much money to be made. Small non-intrusive ads become short skippable ads becomes larger temporarily unskippable ads, becomes multiple short skippable ads becomes dominant intrusive ads and when the well runs dry there it becomes sponsored content and Guerilla advertising. Fuck em all. Cut them off at the neck and never let them in.
