Advertisers, You're on a Landmine Here

2023-07-18 21:28:53Z

Hello everyone! Welcome to my personal website.

Today on my personal website, I'll be talking about ads.

First of all, they fucking suck.

If that's not enough to get you to go away (as an advertiser):

They're annoying

I block ads and annoying crap

On my phone too

I also block JavaScript (unless it is necessary for it to function (and it really shouldn't be that necessary to use JavaScript for it to function because it's just text on a website, you can already with plain HTML))

I also have a Gemini capsule, where injecting ads is like text advertisements. It probably won't work well for your ad, especially if you're trying to get attention.

I don't even use the official YouTube webpage, nor their apps, to avoid ads and shit

I use SponsorBlock

On my phone too

I turned on all categories for SponsorBlock

I submit segments to SponsorBlock

That's is all the reasons you should not be sending emails to me trying to advertise your thing. If that's not enough, please do let me know.

And before you send your email off, use plaintext email!
