Sure, I wrote one of my recent articles on this topic: https://briancaffey.github.io/2021/10/31/how-and-why-i-added.... I mostly treated Adsense as a learning experience.

I realize that most people who visit my site will use an ad blocker, so they won't see ads.

At one point I built an ad-block blocker (like you see on news websites), but doing that is sort of a cat-and-mouse exercise. It worked with some ad-blockers, but not others, so I disabled it. It also seemed to really bother people! I got lots of nasty chat messages through my Drift integration.

It is also an incentive for me to write articles that get a big audience.
