    My ublock origin icon has been at a steady 0 ads blocked in my entire time browsing Lemmy. It feels weird.

      On several sites that counter climbs like crazy. I’m watching a YouTube video right now that’s only 12 minutes long. The uBlock counter just hit 60.

          I haven’t had this page up very long today, but apparently YouTube is on an advertising roll at the moment.

          Added bonus: I’m one of the three people in the world who pays for YouTube premium… so the quantity of ads should be much lower.

            Oh hey, I’m one of the other two, lol. I think they probably lose money on us at this point, with the amount of ads they serve.
