By hand-picking ads only for products and services that you’ve actually used and liked, it stops being an ad feed and starts being a personally branded recommendations channel. It’s closer to an affiliate relationship with the advertiser - like the millions of people that mention a book in a blog post and then link to amazon with their affiliate ID. When a friend recommends a new product to me, it doesn’t feel like an ad, it feels like news.
