sovietknuckles, 9 months ago Threads can only display ads on their app What is stopping them from adding ads to the website? if lemmy.world adds ads, people can just not use the lemmy.world website That’s what I imagine happening, a few people can’t stand it and leave or use uBlock, and the rest of the userbase gets served ads As far as i know they cant force other apps to show ads Not unless ads are a footer or something in post or comment content. That’s an intellectual property gray area, I wonder what will happen.
