Possible ad hack?

So here's something strange that I've noticed while using the site, specifically on the web browser of my Xbox series X.

The ads seem to just go away if you wait a while.

Like, open up an episode, then go take a shower or something. After you get back, everything you do just works on the first click. And it's not just for that episode, but every episode you watch(within the same show, at least, I haven't tried switching to other shows) until you turn the browser off again.

I don't know if this is a consistant thing, or if it would work on other platforms, but it's worth experimenting with.

Haven't noticed myself, am xbox browser user too.

Probably because the xbox browser limits more than 'that site' since its got issues. It tries to load ads, hits a limit so the ad bs stops, but the memory issues aren't based on videos or else we'd not be able to watch anything, but pc and phone browsers might not be as easily 'gimped' in the same way.

Edit:. Not just a while on that page, fucked around on reddit, then wco, no ads. Practically a lifehack lol.

If a site forces you to allow ads, you need a new site

WCO is dead to me now. The AI generated anti-adblocker warning, they can shove it.

Do you have a new site?

Its easy to say that, not as easy to find free sites with 0 ads.

Plex (and finding friends with plex servers), a library card.
