Wondering how much of the Lemmy user base wouldn’t use an adblocker. If you do use one what other blocking do you use to circumvent data collection, YouTube and reddit front ends and things alike?

Y’know, I used to feel the same on that sentiment, but then I realized it’s like me saying “why invest in suntan lotion when you can stay inside on hot days?” But some people like to go out into the sun even in summer, so wearing suntan lotion is the smart, sane thing to do. Just because I like to reminisce about how nice it was to go for a jog in the winter doesn’t invalidate that people like to go to the beach in the summer.
I think we absolutely should expect and strive for a better, more free internet. But if you’re gonna tread the risky waters of the internet, then you should put on some adblock.
Some of us are ignorant though, so I’ll continue raw-dogging the internet and probably get my identity stolen again.
