Pop ups/ ads

[TNtwins85]

What happened Twinsdaily? The bombardment by ads and pop ups has become overwhelming. Trying to read an article or read comments and posts have become overwhelming. As someone who uses a non google browser on a virtually degoogled phone along with a VPN which has always shielded me from any ads whatsoever leaves me puzzled as to what happened to the site. What’s changed? Has anybody else experienced this? Makes it tough to even care about adding to the community or engaging in the community itself when the ads are interrupting browsing of the site. Also, they’re all Minnesota centered adds which does me little good being in Tennessee! lol.

I have that problem occasionally on my phone but rarely on the laptop.

This site is designed to pay its writers and staff and the ads/popups are part of that process. The ads and popups can be difficult to navigate on mobile apps, but if you're logged in as a caretaker, the ads and popups aren't an issue. 

The topic really belongs in Twins Daily Questions About the Site rather than in baseball forums.
