May be everyone on HN has Adblock/ PiHole on.

But this Blog, a single page has 5 Google Ads in it. I dont mind one or two, top and bottom. But 5, right in the middle of every section.

I am out of advertising for a long time so I might not be aware but back in 2009s-10s, Adsense had a limit for 3 ads per page.

Is that not a thing anymore? Genuinely curious

Edit: Yes, some initial searches reveal that it's not a thing anymore.

Blogs like these are the main reason to use ad blocks. And from their perspective: everyone using adblocks is the reason they need 5 ads on the site

Hey man, author here. Thanks for the feedback. I recently added adsense there and I'm testing with the amount of ads in the page. Currently I'm letting AdSense decide how many ads it should place and where.

But if you believe the amount is so harmful for your experience, don't worry. I'll be more than glad to reduce this amount.

Cheers!
