> - most people here use an efficient addblocker

Yup. I was like, "this is a very oldschool site, super-essential, bare styling..." I guess all that whitespace is covered in ads for you, lol.

ha! I don't use an adblocker, and when I first loaded this page, it looked great! and then I quickly quit out and came to the comments instead of using it. And then I saw this, and went back...

Oh. I just wasn't on the page long enough to see just how many ads were loaded, wow!!

You make not using an adblocker seem like an active choice - can I ask why?
The continual attention loss dealing with ads is certainly more than the once-per-install job of turning on an adblocker. I'm surprised it isn't mandated in corporate environments to recover attention loss of employees.
