I don’t get how people put up with that either. My wife said that we were being over dramatic about the 3rd Party Apps protests, but will agree that the ads are annoying. Hopefully she’ll convert over here before to long and get a taste for how a message board should be.
Stockholmed into thinking ads are acceptable. They're not. No social contract says that you have to put up with ads, they're simply unregulated in the USA and people have mostly given up.
Reddit ads are way too intrusive and irrelevant.
