When people talk about "not seeing #ads in the fediverse", what do they mean?
Is someone posting about their music, or product, with a link to purchase, the kind of "ad" they don't see? Because I see loads of those?
Someone promoting their OnlyFans account? I see a fair few of those.
People talking about their work/business life, and linking to blog posts? Seems like an #ad to me.
Do people just mean "no paid media" / "sponsored posts" / promoted content from people you don't follow?
