No advertising. No algorithms driving content at me.

    It's one of those things I don't notice until I make a trip back to Reddit to pick up something I left (moving out takes time).

    At least once per visit I end up clicking an ad by accident, because they're everywhere.

    They serve no purpose for which I have a need.

    It really makes you wonder about the type of people that see an ad and say to themselves " I'm going to look into that ".

    I see an advertisement and the first thing that pops in my mind is "ok, I'll stay away from that for sure, i definitelydont want that in my life"

    I was checking my weather app, and they fed me an ad for something that I didn't even know what it was, so I went to the website, clicked around a bunch, just so they thought I was interested. All Praise be to VPN! Sometimes reinforcing a mis-impression is the best thing one can do.
