Ok so my take on Ad Blockers is that, although I understand the importance of ads to help pay content creators, I still have to use it because ads cause two major issues: horrible user experience, and lag! So many ads are distributed in disruptive ways, such as pop ups, large banners, or overlays that take over the entire page. One horrible example is how there was one ad that, if you scroll to a part of the page, the ad zooms out the page and shows a huge frame around the page with tickets for a show or something simlar. It was disgusting, especially when it messes with my scrolling. Videos are even worse! YouTube and Facebook no longer care for UX; they allow random placement of ads in the middle of videos, disrupting my viewing experience. I get extremely annoyed every time this happens! I no longer use the YouTube mobile app because of this. Then with performance, there are some ads, whether, static, animated, or video type, that somehow manage to consume so much memory and ram, it once crashed the page I was watching. On an older laptop, a video ad was hogging so much memory, it crashed my entire computer!
I'm sorry, I want to really support content creators that deserve to be compensated, but I will indiscriminately block all ads no matter where it comes from, as a statement that internet ad platforms and websites that show ads need to change their user experience and stop disrupting what I watch. The only ad platform that does well in this is Carbon Ads, which usually displays ads about tech related tools and are very minimal; they don't get in your way. If only Carbon Ads displayed ads for all websites.
