A good portion of the news sites I read. If I divide the total area that goes for text and ads, it’s around 35-65. Then there’s taboola ads that show at the bottom, before the related articles. uBlock also stops the majority of stupid “WAIT, SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER” modal that shows up as soon as the mouse exits the window
Any shopping sites is chock full of trackers and external ads, too. Lemme browse shit in peace.
