No ads for members makes sense. First, they are a small percentage of the visitors. (What percentage of visitors are bots is a separate issue.) Second, they create the content.

Were you logged in on your mobile connection? My mobile connections on Android and iOS do not show ads when I am logged in.

No. I was unable to login because the ad literally covered the form, lol.

On mobile, not logged in, I just keep refreshing until there's not too many ads.

Unfortunately my mobile data is very slow as to make that untenable. I only use it for email and such when not at home.

My mobile usage is Maps, maybe a few news sites for a quick check. Curiosity might get the better of me if I'm actively helping somebody on MobileRead. I try not to be like everyone else with my face in my handy. I'll bring my ereader on longer train rides.

This is Mobileread with no adblocker and not logged in. It really is that bad. That's going from the home screen to the forum screen.

I was using Edge with Windows 11.

Exactly. Someone added an "ad" tag to a thread about Ads. Nothing unusual there.

Here's another instance of that "Advert" section showing up on my page. But again, I've got uB0 turned on.
