The Return of The Giant MN Ads

[IJustWantToReadThisThread]

Anyone else getting their 5 minute MN tea break ruined by giant ads that move with the text so you can't read the OP?! Literally no matter how I scroll it covers the post.

Am on laptop.

Pic of one for Sainsbury's, where I just went, and am now considering returning everything in protest. (JK)

The audacity!

@mnhq ?

It's very off-putting, isn't it?

It’s making the site unusable. MN sort your priorities out.

yup.
Just abandoned a thread where I couldn't read the OP because of that stupid Sainsburys ad. It moved up and downwith the thread, so covered the op.

Just use an ad blocker.

Yes, bloody Sainsbury’s ad is driving me nuts.

Me too!! Ugh, that Sainsbury’s ad is awful.

Ah shucks, thats my post! I feel famous

What is this witchcraft of which you speak?!? How does one do this?!

🤣

I’m a huge fan of your subject matter!

And I am desperate to read and respond to your thread but Sainsburys won’t effing let me understand the issue!

I had exactly the same issue with that bloody Sainsbury's ad! I immediately downloaded an ad blocker and problem solved :)

Download a browser extension. Ad block plus is a good shout, but there's others. You'll often need to pick country-specific blacklists as well. Personally I tend to also run an extension like NoScript or similar that blocks Javascript and can then be unblocked permanently for specific websites.

I use Adblock Plus on my desktop computer with Firefox.

On my Android phone I use the Vivaldi browser, which easily gets rid of ads with no need to download an extension.
