  Abso-fucking-lutely not. People need to be able to exist without having hypercommercialism forced on them everywhere.

    No ads and no donations, they’ll put wishful thinking into the skillet and eat that I guess

      Donations, subscriptions, etc are definitely fine. They are not invasive fuckery that inflict themselves on people without consent, nor do they seep into the space in a commercial manner. Ads do not respect consent and they fundamentally force commerce into every place that they touch.

  I support ads.

  Oh, calm down. I don’t support the ad level of Facebook, nor the targeted ads, nor the algorithm.

  And we, as users, get to decide when too many ads are too many, with our feet.
