At work I am forced to deal with browsing without one and I will quite literally run some sites through a service that just returns the raw text of the website in order to make it readable.
I'm no coder, but I'm thinking a "workaround" for an adblocker would be to resize the ads to a 1x1 pixel frame. That way the ad is technically being allowed, the browser is verifying that it's being displayed, but it's actually not practically visible.
Dont even need to do that. You can make the ad believe it loaded and never actually load it. Modern internet structure is really weird. If you are ever curious, press f12 and look at what is on a very average reddit page. Its crazy how much shit there is.
I think Ill give up on the internet before I go back to ads.
The internet is unusable without an adblocker.

A service? Most browsers like Chrome, Firefox, and Safari offer a native text-only Reader Mode.
Do they? I've never laid eyes on that feature.
