This might seem strange, but I use Thunderbird to access my email, and is the case with any mail that come from a bulk mailing list there is always ads in it. I am wondering if there is a way to block these ads from being seen?

You need a system wide ad-blocker, like adguard, or use Ad Block for Thunderbird https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/adblock-plus/

Thanks! I did not realize Ad Block was available in Thunderbird!

I don't get what you are asking? I have never seen an ad in an email? Are you saying you are on Target's mailing list and don't want ads from them in their email?

    • Is the Start menu in Windows actually useful? Do we even need it?

      By emptyother · Posted

      I got too many apps I use actively. Theres been too often I completely blank on the name of the application and had to manually look through the list for it. Now I'm using Start11 and got my apps sorted in the Start menu by categories so that if I'm looking for Krita i can find it under "Art editors". If MS are going to change it, they should consider making automated categories. Seen some Linux distros do that. But if they do, theres probably gonna be a lot of wrongly categorized apps though, unfortunately.

      Haven't really used it much for years, not specific to Windows 11.. it's there but I mostly ignore it. I do install StartAllBack though bust mostly for the other bits that it brings. I prefer the "alt-space" type launchers (KRunner in Plasma, Flow in Windows or the like), a lot less clutter and more smarts like bookmark/history searches and other useful plugins.
