On my computer I use AdBlocker, so I only see the ads on the iPad. Usually, they sort of make sense – political ads, ‘Forecasting World Events’, that sort of thing.
But occasionally, I get the slightly tawdrier ones – you know, ‘Find an Asian Girl to Date’, and once, even a ‘Big Beautiful Black Women’ (maybe because I posted some rap lyrics or videos or something? No idea.) Those really look out of place on the League when they show up.Report
Now I am getting a ‘concealed carry report/know yr rights’ one.Report
I get the Chinese spam, too. It is fairly easy to identify as being not worth my time to decipher.Report
