I use ad-blockers and have for years, and I'm not about to stop. I understand that ads run a lot of the internet, and are necessary.
I'm not opposed to a banner that asks me to disable my ad-blocker, but why doesn't it have a working link for PayPal contributions? For websites I really like, or provide something free that I will use, I make contributions. It's not going to be a ton of money or anything, I'm poor like anyone else here, but it has to be better than nothing.
