    Depends how they are delivered. Social media posts are bad because they look like posts (with a tiny “promoted” badge somewhere) so those get me for a split second.

    But I’m an avoid ad at all costs kinda person.

      I know exactly what you mean and those promoted posts used to get my attention until I saw the “promoted” tag. However at some point I started automatically scrolling by these kind of post. It’s as if I developed an algorithm in my head to quickly detect and ignore them.
