unpersonalized ads are much better for privacy and are less effective at selling stuff which is better for the user.

Even better would have been an option to turn them off entirely =P but that's what UBlock Origin is for.

Can't you turn them off? I thought that was the only option if you didn't reach a thousand subs or something

[-] justlookingfordragon@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

I have 20k followers and no option to turn off ads except the thing mentioned above, which only swaps ad types. But it might be different for people who have monetized their channels, which I don't have and never will.

I guess you just have to swear a lot or something.

Or accept that the ads are paying for the service that you use.
