Big brain time: watching ads in a language you neither understand nor have any intention of learning instead of using adblock

Adblock doesn't block ads that are embedded in the content though, and these are usually not in a language that you don't understand, unless you are zoning out and watching random videos :D

Who tf enjoys watching ads?

Matriks404@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

I generally don't, but if it's in my target language, I might as well watch it, since that's additional practice for listening to native content.

Its a meme about "targeted ads"

It has nothing to do with targeted ads, did you even read the text on the meme linked?

Its a meme about targeted ads for me. This could be literally from Youtube itself. Begging you to tell them in what language you want your ads.
