The only time ads have ever worked on me is when they are so bad that I subscribe to the ad-supported thing I'm using in order to shut them off.
Fun fact, it has been scientifically proven that targeted ads are 98% less effective on neurodivergents! Neurotypical people actually can be and are swayed by targeted ads. For people who are neurodivergent, loss leaders (for example the costco hotdog) are more effective than marketing.
