Yeah it’s from adguard DNS.
Ads just show up semi frequently. Definitely visible but not obtrusive. Just keep scrolling.

You should still see the frequency with adguard. It’s just a blank area where normally there’d be an ad.
I paid to remove ads from Reddit Sync in 2014. 9 years went by where I continued to use the app every single day, as ljdawson continued regular improvements and updates (aside from the incident). By the time Reddit Sync went away, I felt I had vastly underpaid for what I got, and purchased lifetime Ultra as a way of supporting ljdawson.
I totally get what you’re saying. But at the same time, Sync is so much more than just the content that it displays. The ads are not there to profit on free content, they’re there to support the user experience that sync provides. They’re also far, far less obtrusive than typical ads
The nice thing is, there’s choices! Feel free to use other clients and find what works best
I went to college early 2000s. The textbook said something along the lines of “The fastest RAM is 100 MHz”.
DDR was still relatively new then. I took a clipping of an ad showing higher speeds, and he literally claimed I faked the printed ad …
I really am wondering if there’s some sort of sorting issue, or even a self inflicted feedback loop.
If you keep Lemmy on “active”, you end up with a bunch of 1, 2, even 3 day old content. This seems to be noticeably worse in the last few weeks.
However, if you use top 12, there’s enough content to keep it fresh. Not a lot of comments, but that’s alright
Completely agree. I had experiences in Alyx that were unique to any other game I’ve ever played. Things that are just not possible outside of VR.
I don’t think so?
The frequency I see ads is very very low. And when they do it’s just a single card
