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?

No, because I want the content that I consume to be financially viable. You either accept the ads, or seek out other sites with other payment models.
Or, I do whatever I want. Since that is an option.
Sure. You can. But it comes with the risk that the content you’re consuming will go away.
Nobody is obliged to create things for you for free.
Never said anyone is “obliged”. Content will go away anyway eventually, or more often I will go away before the end.
To say it all: usually I find content interesting as long as the creator is doing it out of passion. There is a very clear difference the moment he/she realizes it is possible to get money out of it: and that’s when I usually find another creator.
If the content I am using can’t exist without my data harvested and me blasted with ads, I rather not have the content.
I don’t understand how someone can have a take this cartoonishly ridiculous in 2024. Are you effin serious me boy? I mean dude.
Maybe you’re just book smart. I… Whew! I don’t like to ad hominem but goddamn
It’s interesting how your post has a complete lack of actual content or arguments.
It is?
Fuck that, the internet is free and for the people, let’s make it unviable so we can reclaim it!
This. I don’t skip the ads on creators I like because I want them to keep creating.
