Looks pretty telling about who’s active in that sub that the adblock comment is getting downvoted that much. Do people really want to get relevant ads shown, when they just could see no ads at all? Block everything.
I mean, yeah. I like buying stuff from Instagram ads. but outside of…well, basically everything outside of Instagram… I try to block all the random stalker cookies because I don’t think they’re actually delivering anything better to me, just to the people who think slurping up my data will help them sell me, like, insurance for a car I don’t own.
there’s an aspect of that that’s fair, but when it comes to “aghghgh gotta buy Christmas presents” I think a lot of people have a tendency to take the path of least resistance, which ends up (for me) putting money in the pockets of Evil Big Box. when I can see random Etsy sellers have things that would work that I wouldn’t have thought to look for, that can be good. but then at the same time, probably my experience with Insta ads isn’t everyone’s.
