    Did this article get edited or something? I didn’t get much of anything of substance in that article at all, positive or negative, amidst the cancerous amount of ads.

          You can install uBlock in Firefox, I highly recommend. I recently got into the Warhammer series so I’m spending a lot of time reading pages on the Fandom wiki, and the difference is like night and day.

          1000% better.

          Edit: I’m talking about the Android version of Firefox, just since I didn’t mention it.

            That will either kneecap my connection speed or just send my data to the VPN provider instead of my ISP. Or both. Besides, I’d rather not give the site exposure/clicks if the ads are insane rather than block the ads and still give them traffic.

              Then a PiHole is your solution. What part of the world are you in? I’ve got a spare RasPi I could send over, if that’ll help. 🤘🏼

            Not a fan for several reasons. Namely the Chromium base and the weird crypto stuff. Also I wasn’t asking for solutions to the cancerous ads, I was making a snarky comment about the site while asking where the OP got the negative vibes from, which I didn’t get when I read it.
