    I wonder if uBlock Origin and other ad blocks will work against that crap. Not that I intend to use Reddit anymore anyway.

        They can be blocked feom your home network, but most people don’t even set up their own routers. And part of the point of a phone is you can take it outside. So, yeah. Most people won’t even realize it’s an option, let alone take that option.

          Oh, so the ad don’t use the same base URL as reddit post/comments? then I imagine they would also be able to blocked by local VPN like netguard?
