Yeah I never had much luck with ads. I myself have trained my eyes to ignore ads, and ublock origin browser extension handles the rest.
Onboarding a couple of major influencers would help a ton. Vigilante.tv gets millions of views, but he is not considered an influencer. We need an influencer with at least a million followers to spin up their own Peerhub-powered site and actually promote it.
