The mobile skin may look fine on a phone but on a 12“ iPad Pro it looks terrible and I don‘t want to use it. Surely it‘s not rocket science to correctly position windows on a screen. The crashing problem has gone since I activated the AdBlocker, so that stays too.

I’ve gotten two more of the Amazon popup ads today. Heres a pic of the web address. Address seems different each time.

This morning, once again. Nobody else? Usually when I click on a topic in a new thread.

I primarily use a browser with OK native ad blocking. FT asked me to disable this, which I was happy to do (for a short while). However, FT has not seen fit to protect me from the Amazon scam, which not only locks the tab I have FT open in - but all tabs! I have to kill and restart my browser to continue on.
I have to say that this toxic mix of indifference and incompetence is jarrring. No more ads for FT on any of my machines nor in any of my browsers.

And another one. What's more annoying than disruptive ads? Being disrupted for an add that itself cannot be displayed because it has been disrupted...

Amazon $1000 gift card popup has happened twice today already. It’s too bad you can’t fix this in a timely fashion.
Here’s the web address of the ad.
