"not doing this to make a quick buck"

yet its a blog site absolutely new-years-eve-plastered with ads and user hostile content

Whilst the ad revenue normally doesn’t even cover the hosting costs of the site - which isn’t even expensive! It does give me the motivation to write more content.

If you don’t like ads feel free to use an Adblock - I use https://adblockplus.org/

If you want to buy a Pi for a very low price you could even setup pihole: https://pi-hole.net/

There’s nothing misleading when I say I’m not doing this to make a quick buck. I’m really not it’s just a lockdown project as there really isn’t much else to do in my spare time.

Also I do appreciate the feedback, I have tamed down the ads on the site- I’m usually behind my pihole so didn’t realise quite how annoying they were.

Instant "I'm outta here" design. Thanks for speaking up, sometimes I just feel like an old man yelling at kids to get off my web, but this person is managing to nail every one of my pet peeves.

Do you not use an adblocker? The internet is generally unbearable without one. With ublock origin I don't see any ads at all on his blog.
