USCHO Hard to Navigate with HUGE Advertisements?

[Earl_Leatherland]

Is it just my settings, or does anyone else find it very difficult to navigate USCHO now with the HUGE adverstisements?

There are times when the advertisements take up 1/3 or my screen with no way to get them off.

I have an ad blocker. But it was (is) becoming completely useless simply because people can't navigate through it or even see what they are looking for.

I block ads at the router by using my ad block s/w as my DNS server. I see nothing on any device (although the asswipes are getting smarter and coding their ads as "content," which slips through).

Ditto. But as I recently found out, running two of these helps prevent outages and can be really helpful since many devices inject their own DNS at the tail end of the list, sometimes capped at two. So if you run two with one as redundant, you get two benefits:
1. If one ever fails, it just fails over to the backup seamlessly
2. It also helps prevent DNS injection by things like Amazon, etc. though I suspect this is going to be fixed as updates and new versions roll out.

The biggest threat is DNS over HTTPS. Billed as “encrypted for your safety” when really it’s 100% a way to prevent you from using DNS level blocking. Unless you want to block all HTTPS traffic from your router which, ungood. I fucking hate DoH.

I run Adblock Plus and Privacy Badger. Both are free and do the trick. I use Firefox but I'm pretty sure both also work on Chrome.

Thanks for this I will check it out.
