You’re right about advanced users. But I think people should dig deeper, advance, to get their hands on something better. Average person might as well not need adblockers at all, as far as I’m concerned “normies” are ignorant enough just to live with ads all around

That took me 4 hours to read in one breath. There is everything.
I think you might’ve meant “in one sitting.”
Oh, yeah, lol
