    no, what is needed is an app that helps track who benefits from thr apps that annly you most:

    • ownership of companies pushing annoying ads
    • management of companies pushing annoying ads
    • find the connection between those and the products you maybe want to buy in shops or in internet before you buy, then instead of buying, let the app send the seller a message that you did not buy because of that connection.
    • do this in numbers with lots of people and see what happens to the advertising jungle

    the point is NOT buying because of advertising AND let them know it, so they can learn to improve themselves.

    they wanted your data? let them have it the way you want them to.

    same with any platform. ask the creator of your choice to also publish using patreon and you’ll become a member then, getting the content free of ads. better more directly pay who does the actual work, not all the big tech harvesting all the benefit inbetween.

    so what maybe is needed here could be a free or even self-hostable platform that also allows payed subscriptions.
