I think a lot of people forget to check where they are before replying to things (me especially). Serious replies show up in shitposts and are then apologized for, joke comments are made in communities that are more serious, etc.
I was thinking it’d be nice to have the option to make me click through a confirmation of the community I’m in before crafting a data-driven response to something in an askmelolz group.
Bonus points for making it big and colorful :D




Your traffic is measured by them and used to increase their numbers when making ad sales. Regardless of whether you have given them any money and blocked all their ads, you still count as traffic to the site, and that is what they are selling to advertisers.
So, yes, even though you don’t intentionally give them any money, the majority of the money they make is from the valuation placed on traffic to the site, which you continue contributing to.
