I'll be honest, my kid got pissed at any ads coming through so he updated the blocklists. No ads come through. Here's the list of what is running:

Thank you for the lists, I have added them to my gravity in my pihole

[-] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 months ago

I should have added a little warning. Having all those blocklists active does break a fair amount of the internet, but it's worth it for me.

For now, the internet still works for me, I will change the settings if something breaks

Fuck Subscriptions

3660 readers

1 users here now

Naming and shaming all "recurring spending models" where a one-time fee (or none at all) would be appropriate and logical.

Expect use of strong language.

Follow the basic rules of lemmy.world and common sense, and try to have fun if possible.

No flamewars or attacking other users, unless they're spineless corporate shills.

Note that not all subscriptions are awful. Supporting your favorite ~~camgirl~~ creator or Lemmy server on Patreon is fine. An airbag with subscription is irl Idiocracy-level dystopian bullshit.

New community rule: Shilling for cunty corporations, their subscriptions and other anti-customer practices may result in a 1-day ban. It's so you can think about what it's like when someone can randomly decide what you can and can't use, based on some arbitrary rules. Oh what, you didn't read this fine print? You should read what you're agreeing to.
