    As if there’s not already more than enough reasons to always have an ad blocker… If you absolutely still need to use Facebook and Instagramto keep in touch with people, there’s browser extensions and patched apps that still block the ads.

      If you are on Android, Revanced has several ad-free versions for popular applications like YouTube and spotify. I paid 30 bucks for a lifetime subscription to AdGuard back in 2019 and the experience has been extraordinary.

      It’s always a jarring experience to use someone else’s phone. Ads take up at least a third of the screen at any given time now. I’m not swimming in that shit.
