Hi mnhq
This issue only started today for me, but the adverts surrounding the page are so big it makes reading mn really small.
I not sure if I explaining this right so I did a screenshot for you

Still happening sporadically for me but nowhere near as much as it was. Not today though I think ?

ocelot yes about the ad fighting you when you try zooming in! It will not let me make the actual mn bit bigger so I can see it!
Sorry everyone else get this but I am so glad it is not just me

Really sorry to hear that this is still an issue - we've flagged it up again here at MNHQ and hope to have another update for you soon.

Thank you so much for your patience with this.

That and the little videos you’re forced to watch millions of time drive me insane. Mobile view is fine.

It’s so obviously designed this way and it’s massively irritating. I’m still getting it on my tablet and it makes the main screen so teeny tiny. Trying to zoom in doesn’t always work as the ad fights for space.

Yeah it really doesn’t appear to be a mistake - I cannot do mumsnet on desktop because the advertising is horribly intrusive.

It's a clearly been sold as an advertising format

That was a bad thing to say because now I’m seeing ads for whisky costing £165!

I’ve got a visa ad

It must be a format that’s been sold.

I’ve just had the Maserati again and the slogan is “be the storm”. Shit slogan for a car IMHO.
