First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

What I find funny is that if these people just did old fashioned ad banners at the top, bottom or sides of the page, I would leave ad blocker switched off.
Old fashioned ads are much less lucrative than highly personalized ads. It’s why so many sites require you to create an account to access their content. The end goal of the platform is to extract heaps of advertising data from you.
Then they end up getting nothing and making things worse. This is why we can’t have nice things :|
