To add on to what Matse said, if the issue with custom flairs is potential abuse, why am I allowed to have custom themes and profile pictures where I could have nsfw content? I could even give myself an inappropriate username.

Remove ads from the support hub. Elo shouldn’t be profiting from ads as I help them out by reporting bot users for them.

If you already push articles in our face, give us a comment section or something where we can discuss the article.

I keep getting malicious ads. Please get rid of those.

@Pear just use adblock. It's definitely more justified in my case (since I donated to the site in the past), but I feel like if ads are being intrusive that adblock is completely justified.

Malicious in what sense?

@Lieutenant_Boo probably linking to bad products, viruses, etc. They most likely use google ads on here, which has had that problem for awhile.

Like the “You’ve won a new iPhone! Put in your information.” type of ad. Also often with a bunch of redirects that prevent me from using the back button.

We also now seem to have ads directly embedded into the website, as I do get ads despite me using ublock origin. Frustrating. Very very frustrating.

@Matse007 haven't seen any ads while just using brave, but that might just be me. (other than the self-advertised $20 feedback survey)

Also, the bad ads wouldn’t be an issue if the site didn’t load them right under where my finger is about to press.

Where are these ads located? I haven't seen any yet.

I did not manage to replicate it again while being logged in, but it happens for sure for logged out users. I marked the second position I saw that ad in with red. (The other position is visible as you can see) 2nd screenshot shows the html for the ad. https://i.imgur.com/Xp9gSHd.png https://i.imgur.com/rKGwJhI.png

I have the sidebar disabled. That's probably why I haven't seen any.

Now the site has started redirecting me to the bad ads without me even touching them.

I like the new pending thingy, but some feedback:

  1. That search bar looks super out of place.
  2. The tabs look weird not touching each other. It would fit the theme better if they behaved similarly to how they do on leaderboards. https://i.imgur.com/KrmdA6U.png

I don’t think it’s much of an ask to make some visual changes that took me a total of 3 minutes to do with custom CSS

Fair, but I'm also glad it was updated. It's nice to have this feedback.
