RE: Attention Economy of Steemit
Hmm.. but some posts are already giant ads themselves. I'm quite desensitised by ads anyway, so no biggie on my end. However, I think ads should be a last resort!

Totally agree with you. I don't even notice the ads on facebook lol
A post that is a 'giant ad' is one thing. An ad embedded in a post is something different. Other sites are embedding ads in the text. This is very distracting and totally breaks the mood. The vile microencephalatics are even embedding ads in ads. Try going to any commercial site (walmart, homedepot, amazon) and try to look up the specs (price, weight, etc) of any ONE thing...say a sheet of rigid foamboard. You will find very damn little information embedded in a ton of distracting adverstiements of OTHER stuff which if you try to look THEM up you find the same thing. Ads on top of ads, beside ads, embedded in ads, and none of them are saying a damn thing. No wonder the modern generation has the attention span of a gnat.
ADD (attention deficit disorder) caused by ads. A mental disease.
