RIP CF Mobile

Still waiting for the pay for ad free option that's supposedly coming.
I'll keep running ublock origin on my browsers and PiHole dns at home until CF becomes a pay for ad free. The patreon thing is cool, but i'm still at risk of viruses from the ads on CF if I contribute. I love the site and all, but it's not worth getting ransomware over.
 
Guys I need URLs to block.

The video at the bottom right of the forum is something I'm testing out this week. It supposedly pays really well so I had no choice but to look into it. I specifically did not put that code on the mobile to keep problems from occurring. That video (with our front page headlines, tried not to be intrusive) only shows up on desktop.

I just wish I could show you guys how hard it is to fund this damn site with the current digital industry. Trust me. I'm way more sick of seeing these threads on here than you are having the issues. Keeping this **** clean and trying to keep the business up and running has essentially taken over my life.

I'll browse the site this evening from home and look at my DNS logs to see what's blocked. If there are some juicy url's, ill post them for you.

To run this I'd need a Linux machine somewhere on my network, correct? You don't have to install a different firmware on your router?
 
I’m curious if anyone else has noticed that CF is a huge battery drain on mobile?

I can do a lot of browsing on my iPhone, but CF will draw my battery down wicked fast.

I use a Rasberry Pi 3. keeps up with my 100mb internet. There is a learning curve with whitelisting. A faster device like the odroid may be able to keep up with faster services.
 
Hey CW, if you could post the podcasts on the Stitcher App, that might drive more downloads for the podcasts at least( as using the website has been tough for the Android people)
 
Don't see why this sort of stuff isn't instant permaban..

I mean, I know this isn't a dictatorship or anything, but it's kind of like saying F you straight to your dad's face.

Not sure how that would have gone for the rest of you, but wouldn't have been pretty for me..
Lol message boards. Serious business!!
 
CF is the only website i regularly visit that gives me this problem with ads popping up and crashing safari on my iphone..

I can literally only get on CF from ipad..i no longer ever try from my phone. It is when i got to forums on here usually.
 
Had another ad this morning pop up and crash Safari. Also, without reading back several pages, why do I now have to log in every time on both mobile and desktop? No longer saving my login/keeping me logged in?
