I block adverts everywhere, and i cannot fathom that there are people that don't.

My reply:
Same here. I have all the filters on uBlock Origin enabled, and even if they break something, it's usually irrelevant. I use RVX (installed through Magisk) on my phone, and Firefox with uBlock Origin, Sponserblock, Anti-Adblock Killer by Reek + AAK-Cont scripts, Return YouTube Dislike, and Auto Like to make sure the channels I sub to get likes automatically so I won't have to remember to do it manually every single time. When people complain about ads and sponsor segues, I'm like, “Wait, what? Oh…” where I live, 99.99% of ads are irrelevant to me anyway. Besides, I don't remember ever seeing an ad, and going, “Oh, my God! I gotta have that!” I usually buy stuff based on reviews from reliable channels (Gamers Nexus come to mind) instead of paid shills who can easily convince themselves that any company sells good products.
