Are the admins aware there are redirects from ads?

[Ahhthe90s]

Lately, the past few weeks now, when on Chrome (Android) the webpage on EtcetEra redirects to ad pages with links to download software.

When is this going to be fixed? Clicking on anything on the redirected page leads to app downloads, clicking on back simply refreshed the redirected page.

It's annoying af.

Huh, I use mobile android exclusively and haven't seen it yet, the old site used to kill my browser

I've had it happen a couple of times on desktop (PC, Edge browser) and Android (Chrome), but it's stopped for me lately.

I had it happen a few times a few days ago (chrome on desktop), but it seems to have stopped. I sent an admin a message about it

Always message a mod/admin when you get that so they can do something about it

Ive seen it a few times on iOS, oddly enough latched onto media tags (YouTube) so if I tap to pause an embedded video I was being redirected.

I had this on the old site, not seen any here... yet.

I hope the admins can nip this in the bud asap.

I've had it a couple times on my phone, but never sure if it was a redirect or a miss click.

I pinged the sysadmins to let them know in case they were not already aware.

We have a thread setup for these issues. We are indeed aware.
