You see, now even the page background is a big ad, which is making the page slow down a little on my desktop.
I don't use any adblocker and had no complaining about ads popping here and there like was before, but the actual way the site is forcing users to go for a PRO account is a shame.
It's been ridiculous for years. Unfortunately it seems to be intentional. Anyone new to the site is going to run away as fast as they can. I'm not sure how inhibiting growth like this and/or forcing people to use an adblocker is the best solution.
I'm a Pro subscriber and happy to contribute, because the site itself is amazing. But when I visit without being logged in, it's basically unusable. Feels like accidentally clicking on a porn site. I always panic when it happens in the office.
