I used to enjoy reading this forum a few years ago, but just signing in I can see the site is now inundated with annoying advertizing.

Is there a trick to avoiding this, or are users just stuck with it?

3 easy fixes,
Use DuckDuckGo to get 0 ads.
Use Brave browser to get 0 ads
Or if you use FireFox use Ad blocker Ultimate, i use these three on different devices (Desktop, Phone, Tablet) and i have ZERO issues with ads.

And if you use FireFox with both Adblocker Plus and NoScript can block two ad scripts that mines your browsing. One is Amazon and the other is DoubleClick scripts.

I am currently blocking 6 scripts and 40 ads (and ad count just keeps climbing as Adblocker show the number of ads block on the tool bar.
