    Never used the app, never plan to, but I can’t even handle the main site now. Have (diagnosed) PTSD due to religious trauma, and those fucking unblockable “He Gets Us” ads are intolerable.

      I can’t think of a worse place to advertise religious ideology than reddit.

        Imagine seeing those on a atheism sub

        A church is probably a worse place.

        You want to advertise to people who aren’t your customers.

      As a former user of Baconreader for 11 years, and old.reddit + RES for about the same, this was what did it for me.

      I refuse to be served hegetSus ads.

        Yeah, it’s honestly quite upsetting. I’ve heard similar complaints from alcoholics who are trying to quit drinking being unable to block or hide ads for alcohol. Reddit’s approach to advertising is terrible as it is, but this sort of thing is just downright irresponsible and not ok at all.
