It does go to show the necessity of adblocking software though. It's not just a trivial convenience at the expense of sites' ad-revenue, it's necessary for online safety.
Absolutely
My desktop and laptop both have adblocks on them amongst other things. But I’ve been doing a lot of this research on my iPhone.
Download Wipr or use Firefox Focus. There’s loads of ways to block ads on an iPhone.
Or make a PiHole. I did years ago and I fucking love it. PiHole+Wipr=hella zero ads.
Dam. I didn’t know there was something like Wipr for iPhone. Bought just now. Thanks
I’ve looked into doing a pi-hole actually. Just never got around to grabbing a pi
I have a few small/low power HP machines. I wonder if I could just use that since I already have it on hand.
I just learned about Wipr recently! It does a better job than Firefox Focus at blocking.
I loooove my PiHole. I set it up years ago and haven’t touched it in forever. I should update it today!
If you're still looking for resources (particularly if you are needing non-religious resources) a lot of health systems have outpatient programs and support groups for various substance use disorders, so that would be a good place to look. Depending on how severe the problem is, presenting an open and non-judgemental front regarding medical intervention and medication use can help reduce the stigma of getting chemical help for a chemical problem.
