Not true!

The ads are sponsored results they feed through their own domain (bypasses blocking) at the top of the result page, and they themselves encourage you not to click them unless you otherwise would. They get the money for the sponsored result either way.

I’ve been using ecosia for quite a while now, with a pihole and/or ublock (depending on computer config) and never clicking sponsored links. Its very doable.

I tried to find the info you talk about in https://www.ecosia.org/ but for some reason I didn't mange to do so. Could you share a link where they say these things?
