    The only ads you should see would be in the new “off topic” forum.
    If you getting some from other areas take a screen shot and post a picture of them please.

    is that still around?

    is it drawing the new younger crowd it was created for?

    Have a look.
    I’d guess by the number of pages in each post and more importantly the latest posts show they are actually more busy than the “on topic forum”

    Get uBlock Origin.
    Blocks ads everywhere. Can also add filters to get rid of specific things.

    I don’t think the new Off Topic forum has anywhere near the traffic that HAMB does and rightfully so.
    I spend about an hour a day, sometimes more cruising around the forums, for me it’s like the old Hot Rod magazines. Often times on the HAMB a thread I’m interested in will move several pages down in a day or two, not so in the Off Topic Forum in the same time frame the thread I’m watching might move a page.

    I visit the off topic fourms each day. It does draw in the younger crowd... I am only 70.

    The ads do not bother me.

    Make sure you haven’t accidentally logged out. No adds when you tick the remember me button while logging in.

    Likely the ads are a gift from Google.
    I used to see many, but than, as advised, I googled "duckduckgo"
    I come thru the door with Google then switch to duckduckgo.
    No ads
