Hot dog is this site unusable for me this morning on my phone. Can't go more than 20 seconds before my phone's blocks a pop up and automatically shoots me down to the bottom of the page, then redirects me once I click the screen again.

I refuse to download a browser that has an add blocker just so I can use this one site. This is the only one that I have any issues with at all.

Are you using iOS? If so their are free content blocker apps that run within safari. I have 3 running which is overkill but this site has been awesome since I did.

I found one more terrible site, for the record: ESPN— have been getting redirects on mobile for over a week when im browsing there on my phone.

No it was with my Pixel phone. I have no issues with the site when Im on desktop. Just using chrome on my Pixel the site is pretty much useless. I get the easy fix is just downloading a add blocking browser on my phone. But really too lazy to do it just so I can use this site, and I like to just call my laziness me taking a stance on my principles haha.

Havent had any issues on ESPN lately. But I do guess Ive been using the ESPN app a lot more lately so maybe that is why I havent noticed.

Yep. I would deal with ads if they were reasonable to let them make some money. But they're so brutal and resource hungry you have no choice but to block.

I can’t be the only one. And I shouldn’t have to get an blocker just for this site. This site is the only site where I have this issue. It never used to be like this.

Can someone who runs this site fix this issue. It’s been months now.


I have the same problem. It slows my whole computer down just having the site up. I have to post and close.

I think it is more than just ads. It does it regardless of the computer I am on.

I can't use this site in Firefox because it'll eventually eat up all the memory in the browser (and eventually eat up my whole computer's performance) and I have to use the task manager to kill the browser. It eventually will kill Chrome too but it takes longer.

At least it's not just me.

Ublock Origin add-on has fixed my issues.

I don't know what I am doing right, but I've never had a problem with this site on my home compute, work computer or phone.
