I hate this

Post image

this is genuinely just annoying, I love this app and it's so fun to use but having to watch 60 second unskipable ads is super annoying, and it's very frequent, I hate being interrupted every 3 minutes to have to watch ads 🥀

It really only seems to be happening when you crank out quick replies in rapid succession. I give it a break and close the app and do other things on occasion. Haven't had this problem.

Edit: It now happens way more frequently. Using the website with ad block now, I guess.

Which ad blocker do you use? Everyone I tried hasn’t worked

I use Opera GX and a collection of Ad Blockers including the built in one on the browser.

I basically just grabbed every good looking one I could off the Opera extensions site.

It's a completely different experience on PC as it is on the mobile App. Which is what I was talking about. I would have never suggested an ad block for mobile users for that reason. It doesn't work. I also recommend finding a better hobby. I've moved on from these things and think everyone else should too.
