The irony of having a copilot and right below this post

Why does your lemmy client have ads?

Seriously! I cannot understate how strange that is.

I use boost. It has an ad free version.

Though you're making me wonder if I should change given your surprise haha

I believe I used it on reddit, long ago but there were no ads. I was surprised since no other client I know of has them (and no lemmy server has ads).

I use voyager, it’s great.

I got a popup on my work PC 5 mins ago advertising co pilot.

At least it does not say "i will try it later"

I think it will come back. Given that its using a system notification to suggest an app that is suggested to me in every app I open, pinned to my taskbar, pinned to my start menu and built into my keyboard.
