Tonight this ad is preventing me from reading the text of the thread. I refreshed the thread multiple times and it was always there.

What device are you using? I see that it's a phone but we can try to replicate.

Most of my web browsing is on my computer, but I do use my iPhone on occasions. I’ve never had this sort of problem on my iPhone. Using an iPhone XR running iOS 17.2.1

I'm Android phone using Google browser, this site almost unbearable now on the phone, PC is okay. Seems it got worse just a few weeks ago.

Get rid of Google, switch to a better phone browser such as DuckDuckGo, they don't track your every move!

Whether they track you or not only affects the type of ads you see, not the quantity. Which ones they show me doesn't really matter to me, since I don't read any of them anyway.

Nice to not have them there at all though, if you don't want to look at them.

Yes, but that is what an ad blocker is for. My point was that which search engine you use does not effect how many ads you see when viewing the forum, it just effects WHICH ads you see
