Using Boost for Lemmy, I got an obvious political ad from the right asking to sign a petition to scrap the gun "ban" in Canada (it's a registry not a ban).

Now I understand this is an ad but I don't appreciate having propaganda from the right injected into my browsing on lemmy. Have better ads, or let us report them.

Boost uses Googles ad thingy so you'll have to go through the Google routes. Boost just displays them

if i recall correctly, the app developer can also block specific adverts too though (or at least some categories)

Yeah but idiot me never had to report a Google ad before. I did try to tap the white play button in the right corner before making a post, but it didn't seem to do anything so I asked here prematurely.
