Dont get me wrong, i use adblock. But i entered one without it enabled to test, and it was filled with malware ads that i closed the site immediatly. Why do trackers owners use malware ads, and not regular/gambling website ads? it would get more people to the site (= more money) and people without adblock would be more likely to return.

And if you do want to use public trackers, you don’t need to browse their site. Instead you can use their API ad-free with software like Jackett or Prowlarr.
