I don’t use ad block.

I find that when it messes with the layout or formatting of a website it’s really annoying, and I consider the volume and type of ads an important signal for a website’s trustworthiness.

Oh and plenty of devices don’t have easy access to ad block, like my work computer.

I use reader mode 90% of the time, I’m really not interested in fancy layout or formatting for a website. I just want the text readable and looking exactly the same way for every website. Designers probably hate users like me.

You can get the former from the number showing up in the uBlock Origin icon.
