Unpopular opinion here: Instagram ads are unobtrusive and easy to skip quickly.

Being unwilling to pay for a platform and simultaneously being unwilling to be shown any advertisements is unsustainable.

In the US, Facebook's revenue is $25 per user per quarter. That's $100 a year. Are you willing to pay the same or more than that just for access to their products?

YouTube Premium actually is a great example of how much that pricing ends up being: $11.99 a month.

Your brain has seen them already, that is enough.. I don't want to pollute my mind if I can choose, ads are already omnipresent.

I'm perfectly willing to pay for Instagram, they just don't give me the option.
