    What happened to the forum ?
    Every page adds on the right and left, on phone and tablet almost impossible to close , too small x to close.
    Also everytime the big cookie warning , closing button does work soooo slow.
    I understand ofcourse it's for the money but it's almost not workable anymore.
    Glad I have a good addblocker on the pc.

    Use an Adblocker, I use it on my PC and I don't use my phone much for googling.

    @NikonM @Magnetron
    As I said I use a good adblocker on pc, works perfect but I did not find a good one for Android phone or tablet so far.
    Any advice for a good one ?

    Use [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and add StevenBlack hosts file variant as per your preferences [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

    This will block everything on a system level. Use VPN option.

    Or use Kiwi Browser [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and add uBlock Origin extension [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
    Github links are for the latest pre-releases, but you can get Kiwi from Play store [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and uBlock from Chrome Web Store [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

    Or use Firefox [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and add uBlock Origin extension [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

    Both Kiwi and Firefox work just the same as on PC.

    Before asking a question, know it's already discussed here and at 99.9% is not unique. Use search.

    Many questions become very arduous, a lot of time chewed deja vu...Since we have lost all the year of work and effort, many people have no will to answer the same questions again. Me neither. Use a search, please.

    See lots of advice available if you know IT.
    My phone is a phone and not a computer that I am sitting @ and typing this now.
    This is the way.

    I found Adguard Pro mod by balatan, works fine so far, anyway, a lot better and fast.
    Not all websites work but it is easy to pause Adguard.
    Thanx friends.
