Not really making fun of it, just genuinely curious. Are people still installing Adblock Plus? It has had an Acceptable Ads Committee for over a decade now. What were people using if not that?
I stopped using that when it stopped working. Is there a working version? I thought they got kiked off the app store for “interfering with internet data” or something.
More like most people don’t have the patience to learn the difference between uBlock and UBlock Origin. Also, a lot of people just install Ad Block because they you tell them to install a ad blocker, they just install the one called AdBlock.
No, I prefer to communicate with people able to understand sarcasm in light of the context. The best I can offer is for you to block me to avoid being exposed to my ultra-high level, military grade sarcasm.
You prefer to communicate with people who assume you’re being sarcastic? That’s kinda weird. I prefer to communicate with people who take my words at face value. You’re not worth blocking.
Adblock plus was the standard for so long until maybe 5 or so years ago when they were bought out or something and they were hinting at letting some ads in. I think only the very online people switched to uBlock Origin before Adblock Plus tanked itself. That is all from hazy memory but it wouldn’t surprise me that normies got recommended Adblock Plus and used it until it didn’t work right only to seek out better options now that youtube is serving them so many ads.
I had uBlock Origin installed since forever, are people just finding out about it?

You can’t be genuinely curious by asking a question answered in the source.

Haha look at these people who doesn’t know everything in the world from birth!
Tell me you misunderstood the comic without telling me.
Tell me you don’t understand sarcasm by telling me in writing.
If you want me to understand your sarcasm, maybe put a modicum of effort into communicating it :)

No, I prefer to communicate with people able to detect when I am sarcastic. That’s why I wrote “Understand sarcasm”, something you seemingly don’t.
That’s not nice. I have no issue blocking not-nice people so we won’t communicate again. I wish you a life as pleasant as you.

Yup, as a normie can confirm
