  Thanks for the detailed response. I’m aware that there are lots of stuff active all the time but they indeed seem to have very little effect on the battery on this specific time interval. I just find it a bit weird that Firefox was that much active :} And draining 35% in 18h means that my phone can last, at best, ~2 days (from full charce to 0), if I don’t use it at all. More importantly it means that at night I must check that it have at least 15% or it will die out during the night (which will cause the alarm not to play).
  Not the end of the world, I no, but still a bit weird, so I wondered is it normal or not, I think you are trying to say it is :)

  Sorry to bother but what about mobile?

  But if YouTube doesn’t earn enough how will they be able to maintain the site? Agree that they can earn a little less but for some reason it doesn’t work that way (I’m not aware of a service of such scale which keep profit at minimum) 🤷

  Thanks! Just curious, is AdBlock intentionally programmed to block only such advertisements? Or is it just a slightly “worse” ad blocker?

  That is great! But can I ask how much do you donate? I feel that if I try to donate to all the creators that I use the tools they develop or consume the content they create, this expense will bypass my rent (unless I will give everyone a really, really small donation).

  I agree that the system is getting a bit out of control. But take Spotify for example, most of the users are using the free tier which is one of the reasons what Spotify, which has really minimalistic ads, simply can’t make enough profit to cover the costs. Sites which throw countless ads at you are terrible indeed but there could be a place between removing all the ads and sites which have pop-up full-screen ads every 2 minutes.
