Oh really? It's not on the site for placing aggressive ads?

If you don’t have an ad blocker installed though, seriously, I can’t recommend getting one enough. It’s legit like night and day how different it is. There are occasional inconveniences, but it is overall so, so much better for browsing QoL.

As far as I'm concerned, all ads are aggressive. I don't want to see any ads, period. Using an adblocker is a norm. It's not only a matter of civilized online experience but also privacy and security (latest example). Of course you are not required to use one, but don't go online complaining you see ads.

Everyone else should use adblockers too.
