Yup. Random redirects to the app store, a giant ad at the bottom of the page which reloads every time I load a new RGM page. Mod tools still don't work properly. Generally a gigantic pain. I basically have stopped browsing RGM on mobile at this point.

I'm getting permanent redirects on mobile 9 out of 10 browsing sessions.

FWIW, I've been having ad trouble since I joined this site, even on a full browser. Every time you guys "fix" an ad issue it's like slapping a bandaid on a bullethole. The problem isn't the individual ads (although some are particularly heinous). The problem is the clickbait revenue model that leads to things like triple flash boarders, multiple top banners, thumbnail links to gossip tabloids, etc... As long as the site continues to pimp itself out like that, it will never free itself of virulent ads. For every one you remove, you open the door for a new offender. It's like playing wack-a-mole at the arcade.

There's gotta be some happy medium that allows you to both make money and put out a quality product.
