With the ad adjustment came these banner ads on the top of comment sections and they are atrocious so much so I don’t bother reading comments anymore. They all have the obnoxious white backgrounds and they flicker since they move. It feels light no matter my phones britness they are blinding and since content doesnt get loads of comments the banner is just distracting while reading. I’m on board with ads as I haven’t paid to remove but this specific style changes how I’m using sync now.
personally, I use NextDNS which offers 300,000 queries per month, it’s basically a dns server that doesn’t let your phone connect to ad servers. you can put it’s dns address in your phone settings, pretty easy to use.
if however you want something without limits, you can use dns.adguard.com (just put it in private dns settings in your phone.
that’s only for android though, Idk about iOS as I don’t own an iPhone but it should be possible on iOS too.
Adguard - the paid one - was the best purchase I made in a year. And there was tough competition for this spot.
I appreciate the desire to go all FOSS, but there is still the need to feed all these great people who make it work.
Do not stop yourself, get it!
