Adblockers stop sites from making money from those third-party ads.

They obviously don't stop a shopping site from selling products or from GitLab.com registering users for GitLab services etc.

If the way a site makes money is by abusing the visitors, adblockers stop the abuse and the money from that* side of things, which may be all the income they get, but not necessarily.

So, this is not a simple yes/no situation.
