User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/Making Ads Better: The Basics/@comment-24483688-20170116200342

I use an adblocker because Wikia's ads slow down my Chromebook and iPad (I don't even use Wikia on my iPad because it's just nasty) so much that it makes it nearly impossible to even use. The video ads suck up bandwidth, and the inline and popup ads are nasty. Static image ads are okay, perfectly fine with those.

I really don't like using Ublock Origin on Wikia, but I kind of have to. Really is a shame. I understand how you guys use ads to get revenue, but it makes it challenging to use with bad ads ruining the experience.
