For some reason, it seems like when I try to reply to a post with my iPAD, an advertisement gets embedded automatically. And it's a bit difficult to remove it without using the code view...

Happens to me also in my iPad and on my iPhone. Quite annoying enough to stop me from using either to view or reply to this site. Strange thing is that it does NOT happen on my MacBook Pro.

This is just the mobile gbatemp experience after be mid post ads got added. The website would constantly jump around/auto scroll as ads loaded as I would be reading and responding to a post

I wish they’d get toned down a bit to make the mobile experience better. I understand servers aren’t free but if users have to resort to Adblock to make a site usable that’s another problem

(You can use brave browser on your iPad)

i use Firefox on my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Pro. No very good adblocker for Safari/Firefox on iPad/iPhone, but I do have "Enhanced Tracking Protection" enabled. Its basically useless. No adblockers because all web browsers on Apple devices have to use WebKit, so essentially they are Safari but look differently. It sucks. Only the Apple PC's don't have this option.

Brave works perfect for me. Blocks ads on almost any site. Including YouTube

    I want a handheld gaming system with a tablet sized screen, like a 8 or10" screen, with controllers that can detach like the Switch.

    @BigOnYa i was legitimately trying to scratch my leg, this is reminding me of that cylinder post
  • Scarlet @ Scarlet:
    I don't see the buzz about a square screen personally. I think there will be a review on the site within a few weeks though if you are interested.

    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go

    Ken unless the games are made for that screen size most suck on a screen that size... Having a square screen and being brighter and higher res helps but it's not a cure all, text is tiny bullets are tiny, your.... Well lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You can stretch to fit probably it's not all bad that they make it seem to be
