(Verse 1) In a world controlled by giants, where data flows so fast, We seek freedom and control, a future that will last. A rebellion of the geeks, united in our might, We raise our servers high, ready to take flight.
(Chorus) United hosts, we stand strong and tall, Self-hosting warriors, breaking down the walls. Data sovereignty, our battle cry, United hosts, together we defy.
(Verse 2) No more reliance on the cloud, where privacy can fade, We reclaim our digital lives, where we have a say. Our servers hum with power, our networks interlace, We build our own oasis, in this digital space.
(Chorus) United hosts, we stand strong and tall, Self-hosting warriors, breaking down the walls. Data sovereignty, our battle cry, United hosts, together we defy.
(Bridge) Through firewalls and encryption, we secure our domain, We choose the software we trust, where freedom will remain. Open-source revolution, our code is our might, With each line we write, we reclaim the night.
(Verse 3) In a world where data’s king, we take back our control, No more surveillance or censorship, as our stories unfold. From personal blogs to community forums, we forge our own path, United hosts, we’re the architects of a digital aftermath.
(Chorus) United hosts, we stand strong and tall, Self-hosting warriors, breaking down the walls. Data sovereignty, our battle cry, United hosts, together we defy.
(Outro) United hosts, spreading knowledge and freedom, We shape a world where privacy shall never succumb. Join the revolution, become one of us, United hosts, together we trust.

I used to get ads exclusively for cleaning supplies on this one music app I used only when I cleaned. Never talked about cleaning, just the sounds of cleaning and dishes being done. Probably a coincidence but it freaked me out enough I stopped using that and just downloaded a shit ton of music to my phone.
We looked into it more deeply and found that apparently what happened is users started blocking ads through the chromium browser extension APIs, so we just went ahead and fixed the glitch.
You get ads about things you have photographed. If you give Facebook image access, it will scan ALL of your photos locally. I had some photos of couches it started giving me ads for them.
cmon, pretty sure Linus says that it is basically equivelent to piracy (and hes right) while also freely admitting his use of ublock and saying youre free to use it. Let’s not defame others by quoting them out of context.
I don’t care. I’m not worried about it. It’s not that important. I’m not refusing, I’m just not giving two fucks about it. Why are you so militant about people doing the same thing as you do?
The more ubiquitous ad blockers are, the more incentive companies have to pour resources into the “problem”. I’m really not sure what the endgame is of calling out why every user doesn’t have ad blockers on. The more we push on it, the harder it is to block ads. Honestly, in 2023 if someone allows ads in their spaces, let them. But I’d rather continue with what we have than push all users to something. I say this as a sports fan who knows all too well what happens to streams once they get too popular. I’ve gone through countless quality streamers that haven’t survived once word of mouth got out. Ad blocking will go the same way if it grows in popularity
