My current setup blocks almost all ads by simply blocking trackers. It's ridiculous, really, since there is no targeted adblocking going on.

The only ads I see are native ones like you describe, and they're usually actually useful.

What blocker are you using, and what config?

Set Ghostery to block everything and opt-out of info sharing. Almost all ads magically disappear.

Basically yes. I also have httpsEverywhere and a newly added Privacy Badger, but they don't seem to change anything.
