I've been informed that adblock plus sort of sucks now. If you're looking for one, go for UBlock Origin.

Honestly I never understood why ads try so hard to be annoying like I just don't see how that is more profitable than making a ad that simply makes your product look good somehow they must be working as they are so prominent but I still just don't get it
It’s going to depend on age as well
Zoomers for instance will see an ad to download something and they’d download it. Millennials won’t click ads at all but if they see a software ad then they will assume it’s a scam and avoid that software
So if you are making an ad you want to focus on the Zoomer demographic
As far as annoying, look at the type of YouTubers that Zoomers like. They like annoying things
Seriously? Those kids download software from ads? What happened to the school of "don't click the wrong button on this warez site"?
Uhhh. I'm gen z and everyone I know knows not to download software from ads.
