Since sticking to open source apps on my phone and paid services from big tech companies, I've not seen an ad in ages.
I hadn't even realized it until speaking with a normie whose online experience is defined. He mentions something, and is flooded with ads for it everywhere he goes online.
I'd forgotten ads were even a thing. Advertisers probably had forgotten about me, too.
This is what dying in obscurity looks like and it's beautiful.
