  • I think I’d be ok with removing my ad blocker if ads were simple and non intrusive and creators actually got a decent chunk of the ad revenue. The reason I use it however is that most websites have proven that if you give them an inch they’ll take a mile. So many websites now have so many ads that the actual content is barely visible through the mid-page ads, auto play videos, popups and banners. And that’s not even mentioning the tracking and cookies they now request/use. The internet has become unusable without an ad blocker. If I want to support someone’s content I’d rather use whatever donation method they have set up.


  • Not surprising to me given my own personal experience. I only really use my PS5 for exclusives now and there haven’t been many of those being released recently that I’ve been interested in. Plus new playstation games are expensive which has made me a more patient gamer. So if a non-exclusive game interests me it’s probably going to be cheaper on Steam. I used to be more of a console gamer but these days if you have a decent pc there isn’t much that a console can offer over a pc.
