In order to get relevant ads you have to opt in to give them your data. Do you do that?

In order to use the platform in the EU, you either opt into personalised ads or pay a monthly subscription. So yes, I'm aware they're using my data for the ads.

Google does as well, but they don't seem to be able to offer me even relatively relevant ads based on my interests.
