Over a quarter of Lemmy users use Sync (based on a poll)
(loot.buckodr.ink)
I did a poll and nearly 30% of the people who voted said they used Sync! It's stayed around that percent the whole time too!
EDIT: Here is the poll I forgot to put this here like five times lol https://strawpoll.com/wby5A21R1yA
You might need a better adblocker. With AdGuard I see an empty box from time to time. It's in the colour of the background.
That still looks horrible
You can pay to hide it completely.
I know, i would pay for it (as I did buying the reddit pro and dev versions) but I don't consider that it has a fair price and I don't support subscription models either.
I'm happy hopping between connect and eternity. Boost beta is coming next week as well, so I'm not worried at all.
Scrolling through those black spaces is for sure a bad user experience for me, but to each his own
It's good we have plenty of options. I'm going to try Boost as well because it's the app that really hooked me to reddit and in the end it brought me to lemmy. Although Sync has been so great there's no guarantee I switch. And if Boost released earlier, I probably wouldn't even tried Sync. Let's see them compete. Or collaborate. Or both.
That's just not true. I dont think you understand how DNS blocking works
You can also use something like RethinkDNS for a customized DNS ad blocking. I use AdAway on my phone.
My pihole also blocks all the ads
Not the placeholders though
