How to stop horrible scrolling ads on Macrumors mobile website?

I agree, it's a very annoying type of ad. When I see it start to rear its ugly head I immediately scroll it back down.

Use Tapatalk app. It's free and quicker to navigate the forums with.

Sure:
1) let them know your displeasure in the "site and forum feedback" section - https://forums.macrumors.com/forums/site-and-forum-feedback.66/

2) use a web browser (i.e. iCab mobile) that has a built in adblocker

3) use tapatalk as mentioned above

4) deal with the non-mobile version

Yeah, and make sure you don't use messaging apps either since they might steal your text conversations! Or VoIP apps because they might be recording you! Or scanner apps because they are keeping your documents on a server and looking at them! Or password apps transmitting all your passwords! Or...

At a certain point people need to take off the tin-foil. Pretty much EVERY app in the AppStore is a potential threat if people think this way

Btw... source link of Apple actually quoted saying that? Couldn't find anything via Google and highly doubt they would since 3rd party browsers are simply skinned versions of Safari.

Try using the full desktop website version.
