Refuse? Why?
According to my kids there's a few flash game sites like y8 (perhaps not flash, IIRC that got killed off, but you get the idea) where you're blocked for adblocking. As soon as I have white listed a site they'll find a new one. So they have ublock origin installed, but permanently switched off.
And for some reason at least one kid actually likes youtube ads smh
Kids these days with their loving ads and what not. I came from a simpler time where we hated ads with a passion. :shakes fist:
My 2 year old knows how to hit the okay button on the remote when the Skip ad badge turns white.
Everyone hates commericals.
@BigDanishGuy @schrodingers_dinger, ??? Y8 (Html5, WebGl) works flawless for me in Vivaldi with the inbuild Ad/Trackerblocker
As a zoomer I can never convince my friends to install AdBlock, they think it's too much of a hassle.
You literally install and forget it's there, it's not hard at all. Tell your friends their basic. ๐ Also, thank you for fighting the good fight. โ
