Getting very difficult to use this place!

My observations:
The "Home" link says recent threads but doesn't seem to be recent threads.
On a phone this used to be an easy way to get back to the list of forums, now it involves two taps to menu, and Electrical Forums and a tap to close an add.

It's also sadly the worst it's ever been for ads - it's nearly impossible to find the forum for the ads now!
The first 5 screen as you scroll down are ads. Please see below.
Is there not a danger that this becomes an unattractive environment for forum sponsors as the chances of noticing their material in the sea of ads is tiny?
Is it worth the perpetual fight to have adds in the forum list / thread list - can they not just be consigned to the side panels?

It seemed to be settling down again for a while but now it has got worse than ever.
In the last couple of days I've been getting adverts in the middle of posts and occasionally completely obscuring parts of posts or the top part of the post which tells you who is posting.

Just another couple of weeks...

The only time I use this on my phone is if I need to upload a pic to a post, and even then I try to avoid it. Even as a supporter (so no ads on a PC) it's just swamped.

Wow I'm not having any trouble with ads
When they do pop up on my screen.
I just pop out for a cup of tea and wait if can see me.
Dan, can you stop the dancing ladys, forget I like them.

Even uploading a pic from phone now requires a screenshot first to reduce image size!
I'm supposed to get no ads on PC but that doesn't seem to be working.
I'm getting tempted by the 'friendliest' alternative (tongue in cheek)

My whole screen is full of adds can hardly see posts they even in the post never see it this bad, feel like ive got to squeeze past it all to make head nor tail. lol

Sausages (just for tracking a min lol needed a word, I must be hungry)< keep seeing this at the bottom of nearly every advert

Using Chrome on Win10 laptop, ads obscure posts, so cannot read them, have turned adblocker back on and its better.

I don't get a single add ever, but the place won't be up to much if I'm the only person left.
