Look, I'm no fan of ads, but... It's a free service that costs an ungodly amount of money to run. They've gotta make money somehow.
Of course the whole running it at a loss for a decade thing means they had to go the enshittification route. Could've had more ads and a subscription option long ago but they wanted to lull us into a false sense of security first :/
