Barbaraok Posted December 18, 2020 Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 While I understand the need for ads in order to help pay for the cost of the forum, the constant flickering of a video/GIF ad really irritates me because repetitive flickering can increase my chances at having a migraine. I don't care what it is for, I do know that I would not buy from/use that service because of their ad! For others, they can be actual triggers for seizures. I'm not saying that will happen, but they are annoying, to say the least.

Have that installed, doesn't help. Works for videos but not for GIFs on a loop. 1 hour ago, Pat & Pete said: What ads ?

RV_ Posted December 18, 2020 Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 Barb, I use Adblocker plus as well and see the still frame ad at the top center for guided whatever. I do not see any ads down the right side with my browser, Firefox open full screen, only two blocks of topics. I have Edge but don't like it as much from just habit. Try Edge for Macs, maybe that will help? You did not say what browser you are using. Try Edge for Macs and BRave for Macs. See if the browser with AdBlocker+.
