User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/Fandom and Curse Media are joining forces/@comment-91.219.101.210-20181213082239/@comment-5956954-20181215053720

The ads you mentioned can go away by signing up to FANDOM, going into Special:Preferences, and select "don't show all ads". The difference in experience is significant enough not to warrant Ublock Origin.

I do agree, however, that the ad issue is more significant to general readers than to-be or are-powerusers, so I do hope more work is put into improving the experience of readers as well.
