        Imo that’s pretty unethical. If you don’t want ads, use an app where the maintainer has decided not to include ads or not to charge.

        But don’t take something from a sole-developer (meaning in this case labor is actually getting all the fruits of their labor instead of a CEO), use one of the other options instead where the developers aren’t using it as their main source of income.

            Yup. I block all ads by default, and yet I still bought the lifetime ultra subscription simply because the developer is an awesome guy.

            But ads don’t stand a chance on my phone.
