Changes to ads on our forums

[Brock Beauchamp]

Over the next few hours, this change should propagate to all users:

We've reduced ad coverage on the forums by about 25% on mobile devices. I've received complaints and also been bothered by how prevalent ads are on phones, specifically on the forums. While there will still occasionally be ad-post-ad situations, it will be rare now and after testing this for several days, I've seen more instances of four posts in a row with no ads between than I've seen ad-post-ad situations.

Hopefully this makes browsing and participating on the forums a more pleasant experience on mobile devices!

FYI @Brock Beauchamp the pop up to sign up for the Twins Daily newsletter is broken on mobile. My screen flashes and makes it nearly impossible to navigate the site.

What kind of device and browser?

iPhone - Brave browser

Basically it looks like the pop up wants to load but it doesn't. So the screen flashes instead

Just checked, and it worked fine for me.

But to be clear, I won't troubleshoot issues in Brave. Their whole thing is depriving this site of 95% of the revenue we receive to pay our writers and keep the lights on here.
