or rather Nintendo’s unprecedented greed
yeh maybe in a few years when I need a new phone
no it was sarcasm
Exactly, so “degoogling” your phone isn’t a solution.
I just want to buy a phone and use it without having to figure out all that
Return to Nokia 3310 then I guess
no extra steps, that’s exactly what chaotic evil is
so the whole alignment thing is just a political compass?
will this affect apps like revanced too?
Games probably. If I’m browsing the store looking for new games, any games I’ve seen in ads will probably pique my interest more because I recognise them.
Same with food, movies, so many other things.
I support indie/small groups of devs who want some money for their work.
It’s just the rich companies I despise.
me neither I think? but it probably still subconsciously affects me
No I understand why websites show ads. I don’t understand why whenever I disable personal ads, I get a message saying “Are you really sure? If you disable this you won’t see your favourite ads anymore and only see ads for things you probably don’t want to buy. That’d be awful wouldn’t it?” and expect me to change my mind because that’s definitely not why I wanted to disable it in the first place.
They act as if people like to see ads because then they can buy stuff they think they want/need. And I’m getting afraid that’s actually true for a lot of people too.
From where comes the idea that personalised ads are good? I hate this timeline.
but then I’ll be seeing ads lol
Would it make sense to use ecosia when you’re also using ublock origin? Can they grow trees if you’re not viewing any ads?
so we can’t have secrets but they can?
