The comments speak for themselves
tacofox, Tldr?
joucker29, Too long didn’t read.
ICastFist, 
I won’t waste my time reading your comment, but i’ll waste a lot of time talking shit about how i think you commented!
KingThrillgore, 
I feel personally attacked
MacNCheezus, 
Sir, this is a meme.
bartolomeo, 
I didn’t read the text, just came to comments to see what it was about. Now I know, this is a meme.
Mango, Comments > ads
Octopus1348, 
You mean ads in the article? Just use a good mobile browser that supports ad blockers.
can, Who here on Lemmy is still seeing ads?
mexicancartel, It reads Comments “greater than” ads not “to” or anything. Reading comments better than seeing ads in article
can, You miss my point. It takes a certain type of person to be on the fediverse or to even have heard of it in the first place. I just expect someone like that to know how to block ads especially on webpages.
mexicancartel, Oh i see
Deello, I’m guessing mobile users who don’t pay for apps.
Altevisor, Why are people using the apps that have any ads? There are a million Lemmy apps out there at this point. Most are completely free and no ads
Asudox, (edited ) 
It’s mostly Sync users. Some of them seriously pay 110$ for Sync Ultra lifetime lmao.
can, Many of them used the old sync for years and just wanted to to contribute for that reason.
Deello, (edited ) I feel this is it but surely there are other apps following this model. I’m assuming they are probably the biggest but definitely not the only ones doing it. For good* ad-free software that is being actively developed and will get used probably every day for years, $100 seems more than fair to me. Beats paying a subscription indefinitely imo. I paid for the Plex lifetime pass for similar reasons and that was worth every penny.
*Good is subjective, just because you wouldn’t pay doesn’t mean others won’t.Edit: formatting
exocrinous, I think most of the in app browsers still load ads on remote sites. Aren’t most of them just based on Chrome?
Altevisor, Im sure the browsers and source webpages in the apps have ads. But my interpretation was that people are seeing ads on the Lemmy site itself in these free apps.
I hope that is not the case
exocrinous, We’re talking about reasons to comment on posts without reading the article, and the top level comment says it’s too avoid seeing ads.
prunerye, Give me an archive link and I’ll click it every time. Otherwise, almost never.
F4rtEmp3r0r, 
I thought it was standard operating procedure on the Internet.
cyberpunk007, Reddit users too
_Sprite, 
Same people
scytale, Everywhere on social media. However, I did notice I actually read through the articles more often here on lemmy.
EvolvedTurtle, Not quite everywhere Everytime I tried doing it on Twitter or tiktok I never find any useful info in the comments
poinck, Not just here. Everywhere!
pinkdrunkenelephants, No one is here to discuss anything in good faith.
TheJims, There’s articles?
MataVatnik, 
I’m just here to argue with baseless opinions
rando895, I prefer to only read the top line of a meme then post. And no that’s not a Lemmy user, that’s squidward
WhiskyTangoFoxtrot, The cellist?
covert_czar, 
No!! Lemmings don’t rush in water they live in holes🐭
AI_toothbrush, I wanna report this post because i see myself in the picture.
pancakes, 
I don’t want to read the thing. I want to discuss the thing that i didn’t read with other people who didn’t read the thing.
ITypeWithMyDick, I see someone posted a spongebob picture, I love spongerobert!
