Ublock and the extensions to kill twitter and reddit ads have all stopped working due to recent changes they made. I've tried 12 different blockers in a row and none of them are working.
Anyone know of a way to reliably zap their damn ads? Thanks for any suggestions.

Twitter has ads? Have you tried not logging in?

This is hard to argue with as a solution.

Twitter has ads? Have you tried not logging in? I have. I tell my hand "don't push that button," and two seconds later it pushes it!* *I follow comedians, and I stop following them if they get too political. I'm down to 8 people I follow, but dammit they're funny and I wants to see!

Activate the killer droids. It is now our only option. Oh and release the Kraken as well.

Adguard on Chrome works fine for me against Reddit ads. No idea about Twitter.

So it turned out that I was using the wrong version of uBlock. It worked fine until a few days ago, then poof. But I switched to the original version and everything is back to normal now.
No more need to panic!

Scroll past the twitter ads?
P.S. after all the special effects movies about the "future" in the 90s, I never thought cyberspace would be a twitter and facebook feed.

Wait... this isn't twitter. Hashtags are MEANINGLESS!!!

I just block or mute ads I don't want to see on Twitter the way I block a troll or mute a drunk tweeter. It's not complicated. Twitter is worth the trouble. Unless you want to live in a bubble...
