Ad Block Plus has been acquired, while Taboola, Micro$oft, Amazon and Google compensated them to allow their ads through the whitelist, so much of what was blocked is no longer happening. I recommend this alternative: OpenSource can offer more comprehensive blocking than ABP. Logan also uses it effectively. https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock It actually improves page load times because ads are both blocked and not loaded. Plus, it requires less than 9000 TB of RAM compared to ABP.
Sure, generally it takes a while before things happen like this. The reason you notice Imgur ads is likely because your block list isn’t set up correctly or you’ve enabled “Allow non-intrusive ads.” uBlock actually caught my attention—it speeds up page loading and even makes Chrome use less memory than before. It’s really helpful, I’d definitely recommend it.
