Same here. No ads. But even before becoming a supporting member I rarely saw ads. Just the ones at the top of the page.Log in

That's another good point. If people are seeing the ads in the middle of trying to write a post, it must be a pop-up, right? And those can be blocked (which is a separate step from blocking ads).and Firefox is set to prevent pop-ups.
Me too. uBlock Origin, NoScript, AdBlocker Ultimate, Unpaywall & Facebook Container.I have no popup ads on my screen... uBlock Origin
I don't mind ads so much, what I mind are the ones always flashing and moving. So distracting on my eyes.Anyone who uses the internet is used to ads. Anyone who watched Bob's videos is used to ads. I don't understand the brouhaha.
Not everyone sees ads on the internet and Bob's videos (all of YouTube). Anyone who uses AdBlock doesn't see any ads.Anyone who uses the internet is used to ads. Anyone who watched Bob's videos is used to ads. I don't understand the brouhaha.
Bye.So now we can't peruse the forum without the annoying video ads unless signed in.
I'm done...

sometimes ya gotta hit a button and do what someone offers as advice and try or just say bye on the forum if too darn hard to wander the internet, could be for some, but it is what it is for each of us. Come or go. Learn and change or perish it all as one wants to the wayside. In the end, hey ya know....Well I'm wondering if it really IS as simple as (1) set preferences here, (2) use an ad blocker, (3) set browser to block pop-ups = perfect freedom from ads.
MAYBE -- and I HOPE so! -- but these things are not always as simple as they seem.
