Hi guys.

On my linux laptop I use uBlock Origin to block ads and malware, so this website works fine.

However, on my Android smartphone I don't have an adblocker active and this website is completely unusable. So many pop-up ads and worst, redirect ads that make us leave the website and go to betting sites.

Is this to be expected? It's a lousy user experience.

From my long experience using ads to monetize my own websites, less is more. Just put some worthy affiliate links on a fixed sidebar and that works great without being intrusive and ruining user experience.

Don't wanna butt in here, cuz I'm not a tech guy, but I also use Android, and when I'm logged in, there are no ads. Are you logged in?

No, I'm only logged in when I'm on my laptop - to manage my torrent uploads.

Even if the redirect ads are only for visitors, it's bad, because it drives them away without giving them the opportunity to register. Content should always be king.

I'm just reporting this because the administrator may not be aware of this problem.

This can be easily tested on a desktop, just by simulating a mobile viewport.

If I'm right, registered users will never see any ads, pop-ups or any other similar annoying stuffs.

You will not get Ads if you are logged on with device you are using.
