    on nintendo, its working well so far and hasnt caused me any issues and the pop ups are easy enough to dismiss so it doesnt ruin the experience too much 👍

      ig its just my switch bc mine is bad but it messed up my messages screen especially in shoutbox, specifically getting rid of the scoll bar, making all of the messages show at once and causing a lot of lag. the pop-up in general made me lag too

              @ilovecats2018 no,because it should be an opt out thing. like, some ofthe ads ive gotten are lowkey weird and directing me to weird sites, and they just ruin personal expeerience. lockimg things bhind VIP doesnt make the site better tbh, esp for people aldready in the group.

                                  For those on Switch, is it that bad? Is that on Switch 1 (OLED, Lite, or original) or Switch 2? And which DNS are you using? (certain ones might have some built-in ad-blocking)

                                  Popping up during conversations is a definite problem. I'm also not a huge fan of ads, so I'm always going to err on the side of making them be optional. The @Hide-BDNS-Ads group works well because you still have to seek it out, but also, signed-out users eg. people arriving via Google search can't join them.

                                  If the ads are weird, how weird are we talking? Below is an example of the kinds of ads I'm seeing. Although it's a LOT of ad real estate, I also kind of feel like that's just how the Internet is these days?

                                  c281e033-3cc2-48fd-a0b8-8d2443808748-image.png

                                  Google has their own internal algorithms where they decide where to put the ads, but you can mark certain areas as "off limits" zones. That first page load though is some of the more valuable real-estate (which is also why so many news sites look so terrible). It's a trade-off for user annoyance VS ad performance, really.

                                    For those on Switch, is it that bad? Is that on Switch 1 (OLED, Lite, or original) or Switch 2? And which DNS are you using? (certain ones might have some built-in ad-blocking)

                                    Popping up during conversations is a definite problem. I'm also not a huge fan of ads, so I'm always going to err on the side of making them be optional. The @Hide-BDNS-Ads group works well because you still have to seek it out, but also, signed-out users eg. people arriving via Google search can't join them.

                                    If the ads are weird, how weird are we talking? Below is an example of the kinds of ads I'm seeing. Although it's a LOT of ad real estate, I also kind of feel like that's just how the Internet is these days?

                                    Google has their own internal algorithms where they decide where to put the ads, but you can mark certain areas as "off limits" zones. That first page load though is some of the more valuable real-estate (which is also why so many news sites look so terrible). It's a trade-off for user annoyance VS ad performance, really.

                                    Are you getting ADTraffic though? If not, what's the point in them being displayed for Switch Users.

                                      @Raven This time, that's part of the experiment, I'm curious to see if the situation has changed at all in that area. There's a new "optimize for mobile" feature that might help Switch users.

                                        @VGMoose im on switch light and its not bad for me so far, my ads haven't been particularly weird either, just mobile games and it hasnt gotten in the of me posting or dming and i have not noticed more lag

                                        there was this pop up that said 'web browsers' and blocked a bit of the typing box in my dms that i cant get rid of but i closed the browser and now its gone

                                        (edit) nvm i absolutely take it back, idk if its bc of the ads but the site has been hella laggy for me lately in ways it wasnt before and its very annoying

                                          @VGMoose Switch 2 isn't bad at all, it doesn't interupt much at all, plus the ability to just hide it with the arrow.
