I posted about really being overrun by ads on Priuschat with my android phone and Mendel mentioned blockers. I just installed Firefox and Ublock (?) And it is a miracle!!-! Thank you!!!
PriusChat and other web services are supported by ad revenue. Ads can be irritating, ignore-able, or sometimes amusing (recently had a pop up in Finnish ). Users have options to block ads and thus that small slice of revenues. They should decide, and knowing enough about ad blockers facilitate decision. Their decision.
I get that Danny needs some income, but it was to the point that I was about to give up this site. It made it very difficult to navigate. And, as mentioned, would bonk me off the site altogether. More than willing to see ads, but have to have a balance between seeing and being buried.
I too get that Danny needs ad revenue, but got exasperated, by incessant pop-up ads, long-delay animated/flashing ads, ladies that are dying to meet me, etcetera. I don't mind a few ads, but it was too much.
I run 3 blockers and a VPN with Firefox in privacy mode and strict security mode. Ad-blocker ultimate Ghostery Privacy badger without issues - It may hang some banking apps if you don't place them in your exceptions list. Certain web sites use cookies for security purposes that one or more of the above apps may block. Mostly government/institutional web sites that are way behind the times. Just make sure they aren't scam site links - find the official links your self, rather than click on whatever link they give you. YMMV
I’ve had Ka-Block! For years. I’d be happy to buy Danny a beer, but the opportunity has never presented itself
