A couple dozen plus a few.
(It's possible that I counted some of the apples more than once.)

The real question is: how’d you like them apples?
The real task: compare them to equivalent oranges.

Yeesh, porn ads.

Is this some sort of meta or anti joke? I thought it was a spam bot post.

Well, none. Those are images of apples.

No apples. It is a PNG file.
Also, this is not my jam.
Though I'm totally happy to just keep moving along ...

Ok the first one is two, though. It's two stuck together. It's not "one apple".

I do not have an ad blocker on my phone. (Do they exist?)
I would prefer to not be seen perusing improbably globular latex-clad buttocks and implausibly enormous anime breasts advertising "🍆booty call!" and entreating me to chat up someone else's wife while I'm on my lunch break, all because I clicked a link asking "how many apples?" on a site I trust.
Especially not for an inscrutable image which occupies literally equal screen space with the aforementioned unlikely body parts.
The added content warning is nice and should help others, but I'm still waiting for someone to clear up what the point of this image is.
Is it an in-joke? Am I not hip anymore? Was I ever?

I use an iPhone and Purify does a decent job of keeping everything looking clean, though you have to use Safari, I believe.

the explanation is on the Projects post. (and yes, there are ad blockers for mobile; Adblock Plus is one for iOS. dunno about Android but maybe there's a uBlock Origin that works on Chrome there?)

The Projects page doesn’t give me any insight into what this “project” is supposed to entail, or why. Like, is it just “counting is hard because definitions are slippery”? If so, this post is basically chat-filter with a visual prop and some bonus porn thrown in for good measure.

I pointed my routers DNS to AdGuard DNS yesterday, so I didn't see any ads. I'm not 100% sure this was a great idea (Russian company with servers in Cyprus), but I am digging the whole network and blocking.

I spent about thirty seconds trying to figure out where the rest of the content was before it dawned on me that, no, this was all it was.
I'm glad I have a robust adblocker, though, if what I'm gathering from the comments is correct. Jeez.

That out of the way—Upper left and lower left are apples and the others aren't.
(If I said "could you fetch me an apple" with no other context, I'd expect you to pick one of those.)
