Ad shrinking screen

Thanks. Taking a look. Only this ad as far as you can tell?

Yea, but I must admit, I’m getting to the point of throwing an ad blocker back up for this site. They’re getting to be rather annoying. Especially when typing and the ad covers the cursor. Like this for example. The screen doesn’t follow the typing, so suddenly I can’t see own words.

Had it happen to me today. Very confusing when it happened.
 
Yeah, I was able to reproduce it. It shrinks it and then goes back right? Really weird. The ad company is working on it - sorry about that.
 
They’ve made some updates. I’m not confident but please let me know if you still see this issue. Sorry.
 
Now there are weird ads that flash a full frame around the page on my phone and takes a couple of seconds before it goes away and lets me do anything on the page. I tried to get a screen shot. You can kind of see the white frame on this one.

The shrinking thing seems to have gotten better but now I'm getting 30 second video ads that seem to be tied to pictures or other videos in individual posts. Like you have to watch an ad to be able to see the picture or gif or whatever had been posted.

The video over images has been reported. The shrinking screen issue is hard to pin down so any ads with destination URLs will be helpful. Sorry.
 
This is new, completely blankets the screen...

Here is another one. And this one interrupted me writing a post and locked down the screen for a full 5 count which is virtually forever in Internet time. Long enough to get a solid screen shot.

No worries, it is not your fault. It is a necessary evil, I get that. Personally I would pay a monthly charge to have an ad-free version if it helped support the site better. I am sure others would as well. Might be worth looking into.
