I'd be fine with ads and even paying if the creators weren't treated like trash and the number of ads weren't ridiculously obtrusive.
Unfortunately that's always the end result as never ending greed will always lead companies there
It's hard to imagine that situation wouldn't always lead us here. The advertiser-centric internet has got to go.
I'll never be okay with ads *on social media. They're invasive and serve no purpose. I know the psychology behind it but if you're the type of person to buy something just because you saw an ad I think you need mental help.
*Edited for clarity. I know some advertising is necessary but not ads on social media
Now that part is objectively incorrect
You're not wrong like I said I know the psychology behind it I suppose I meant the types of online advertisements YouTube uses for example. It's one thing to advertise new products. It's another thing entirely to watch another ad about banking or shit like that.
