I don't really use facebook anymore so couldn't care less; but so happened to log in today to change my password and saw this on my front page.
Loooooooooooool as if there was a single fuckin thing on Facebook I wanted to see badly enough to disable my ad blocker.
So all my “friends” are actually ads?
Guess I don’t need to use Facebook
It would be funny if the ad blocking community just ignored this, and focused on removing FB tracking on external sites.
pretty bold of them.
at least youtube actually offers a valuable service in return.
Great for the internet! More people will install an adblocker (hopefully ublock origin).
Oh no! Anyway...
It didn't even say please
At least try to be polite so I can politely say go f yourself
Everyone should be using the Facebook addon "Facebook Purity" if they are still using the platform. I've been using it for over a decade and I can't stand using Facebook without it…
They are always a few steps ahead of Facebook and work well with other blockers.
Not only that, you can block specific parts of Facebook, not just the adverts. You can block the shorts, people you know, groups, keywords, and even whole topics.
You can change settings, like how you see your feed and it will stay changed.
Changing the font size, type, spacing in addition a bunch of color and night mode options are just icing on the cake.
In my professional opinion, it's the only way of working with that platform is not harmful to one's sanity.
What a shame.
Uh yeah, I paid for YouTube Premium, I purged my accounts on Facebook, they are not the same. It does make me happy when platforms that abuse their privilege like Facebook begin doing things that will bring them closer to their end.
