I block ads everywhere, and so I sometimes forget that there are no ads on the Fediverse to begin with.
Remembering that made me feel a little bit more relaxed. I appreciate everyone here 😊

Just glanced up to uBlock Origin and that number’s not zero, so…maybe not visual ads, but there isn’t nothing.
Generally there shouldn’t be anything (on Lemmy anyway), it’s showing 0 on mine.
Out of curiosity, can you check what is being blocked on yours? It could be worth following up on
Lemmy.world appears to link cloudflareinsights.com. Doesn’t seem like a big deal to me, but interesting nonetheless.
its always zero on mines.
Aside from the cloudflare stat tracker, probably just a false positive JS match from quick fixes.
It’s the cloudflare one for me, yeah. The bit where it says how many things are blocked on the page you’re currently on seems to always say “2”.
Honestly didn’t even notice until this thread, lol.
It bothers me how weak-willed most people are. They’ll bitch, moan, and complain about a platform, but won’t leave it.
I think they do want to leave. They just don’t want to be the first to leave among their group, because they’re afraid of going it alone. Complaining then serves as a way of trying to build a consensus around leaving as a group. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Why it works when it works will remain a mystery to me.
So they’re cowards.
What you are describing is cowardice.
So I take it you’re living in a cabin in the woods, all by yourself, growing your own food and living off the land, completely alone? What are you doing on the internet then? You didn’t build that all by yourself!
Quitting Reddit is a far cry from “living off the grid” lmao
Totally missing the point. People not wanting to walk away from a community they belong to doesn’t make them cowards, it makes them human.
