[Alucidnation]

Do you seriously think that HM are going to do anything about it now they have sold out?

I've switched from Chrome to Brave on my (Android) phone for built-in, ad-free access, as Chrome's ad block doesn't come across to the mobile version.

PH is much zippier now!

Just given your suggestion a try. Works perfect now. No issues at all and no fking Outbrain adds taking half the page up now too!

Blimey. Properly fast!

Sod it, I've made the change too.

Thanks!

Me to, its pretty zippy. Cheers

In a few minutes of using brave just to load up pistonheads.com, login and check the site worked OK brave stated it had blocked 145 adverts and 60 trackers.
That is disgusting.

See below just from making the switch ( only been on PH ).

Switched to Brave - thanks for the heads-up - so much better.

scorecardresearch.com and outbrain can get to fk!

Also gone to Brave, thanks for the tip, as I said previously, PH do not have a good track record of fixing issues, so this may be borked for a good while.

+1 for Brave browser, fast or what...

I thought my blooming phone was broken!

It's a surprise that one of the mythical "PH development" team haven't appeared with a quick fix. Not.
What an absolute embarrassment.

Off to try Brave now. More ad revenue lost for you - less is more as they say. I think if the ads were less intrusive and quicker to load then people wouldn't block them as much.

[Doofus]

Brave blocked 548 ads, 215 trackers and saved 32s. In a session I timed at 60 seconds.

Disgraceful.

435 ads ? FOUR HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE ?! I knew they were bad on here but that must be a new record? WTF.

Pahahahahha. What an absolute joke.

Just got brave installed. Working well.

Navigated straight to this page. That's right, I have visited 1 page on PH and this is result....

[bazza white]

For some reason brave blocks images on the skynews site. Any ideas?

[helix402]

Pistonheads breaks on day sale announced.

Pistonheads not fixed for a very long time (again)

Members find a fix, thanks to all who recommended Brave. Works a treat.

Pistonheads dies?

Who knows?..................

[LaurasOtherHalf]

This is all I get, with one ad blocker running it wouldn't even let me open PH with the other, the same half loaded page and the beachball of pain.

Safari on Macbook Pro

[doolie]

Thank fork for that, starting to think my phone browser was borked. Brave it is...

Who is the useless fking that has broken the forum? What a hopeless wker. Excuse my rant but everything was fine on Sunday, then the headline about the site being sold it goes to st.

its st isn't it.

Same problem here with my iPhone. Pages taking an age to load. Have installed Brave and it’s now working okay.

Needs a fix, it is unusable in its current state
