Many thanks, @thibault . I had ABP on my computer, but I have noticed it really didn't work as well as it ought. uBlock looks like it will be a marked improvement. We all should try to take time to appreciate everything that you and your devs have done to build a site 100% dedicated to chess, while keeping outside influences to a minimum.
@thibault this may be a tad off-topic, but what is your view on the Brave Browser? I know Lichess is a verified Brave creator. What do you think about the browser's privacy and advertising features?
I don't like that Brave encourages people to expose themselves to ads willingly. It's quite insidious. I think all the options listed in lichess.org/ads are superior.
I only made the account so people stop asking me to. I won't accept any ad money.
What to do about the pages that say "you must turn your adblocker off or you are not allowed to read this site"? I keep running into those when searching for something on Google and it's extremely annoying.
