I can hardly view the sight on my phone because all of the sudden I am being overwhelmed with ads. Mostly Walmart that I never visited and healthcare ads. I am a digital member and this started about 3 wks ago. Is it my phone or the OGR sight?

A windows pc with an ad blocker is best, followed by an iPad. I don’t think that looking at the OGR on an iPhone is satisfactory.
Use DuckDuckGo as your browser the ads will be blocked
I cannot imagine trying to read this forum in a tiny phone screen.

It was actually do-able before the ads. Now I don't even bother. This isn't a commentary on the ads but just my experience using a phone to view the forum.
I haven't complained about this because I understand it is necessary for the continued success of this forum but I noticed now within the last 2 or 3 weeks it is not even viewable on my phone anymore. My phone is all I have ever used as I rarely use my home computer since I am not home often.
I'm not complaining I just want others to know if you use your computers at home or work you will have much better success.

Brad and Marty, I don’t have a home computer only use the phone. When this first started it was a PITA, but downloaded the DuckDuckGo Browser and no more ads!
