I haven’t seen an ad online since 2004. Don’t know how you people do it
Huh even with adblockers from the early 2010s, some still manage to sneak through for me and I even use pi.hole on my network
DNS adblocking doesn't help with ads served on the same host as the content, so you typically need ublock origin or similar as well. But yeah, OP is being a bit hyperbolic but you can certainly set things up such that is exceedingly rare.
Live sport is the only place I'm still assaulted by advertisements, and I'm not willing to pay Murdoch to avoid (some) of it.
