And I'm grateful for these people. If everyone was using adblockers then companies like Google and advertisers would try even harder to break adblockers so it's best if some amount of the population continues to browse without adblockers so I can get ad free access to the internet

    It’s naive to think they’re not trying as hard as they can. Companies are not allowed to stop going for more, if 99% of all users didn’t block ads, they’d go just as hard after the 1% that did.

    I'm sure they are not sitting on their hands but if someday it started affecting their profits at a larger level, they'd put far more resources into anti ad block I think than they do now, also Chrome has already made ad blockers difficult to run on chrome which I guess was their endgame, thankfully non chrome based browsers like Firefox and Safari still exist so I'll continue supporting them, hopefully ladybird is also successful
