Wait, you only see ads from major brands if you follow them?
I wish they did this on youtube and every other site on the internet. I would never ever see a single ad.
You're probably more likely to see ads from brands you follow but there's no way in hell you get less ads if you follow fewer brands.
No, you'll constantly see ads from everything. The only limiting factor is that you block the brand's account. Even then they were discussing the possibility of forbidding the users from blocking ads.
