We all need to pitch in a little to support this site more.

I love this site, but the addition of the newest ads are very off putting. What would we, as a community need to provide in combined monthly funding, to remove those large ads in between the articles list? Again, I really love this site and I'd hate to see it go down the path of being covered in ads.

That too, which I am fine with if you need to and also cannot afford to support GOL in any way.

So if 100 of us Patreon 5 a month that would be enough from one of Liam's comments. I would be willing to do that, but would the ads actually get taken out for everyone? I would do this to keep the site ad free, but not just for me while I'm logged in. I don't want to log in on every device I use to visit and I don't want the site to start changing to maximize ad revenue as opposed to actually making the site better for the public.

As I always browse in Incognito Mode on my phone (you can't turn off history in Vanadium), I'm always logged out, which means even if I did donate, I wouldn't be getting the benefits of it, so I don't have much of a motivation to donate beyond liking the content (and putting up with ads anyway). Eliminating ads for everyone would be more of a motivating factor for me.

Or I guess I could just stop browsing on my phone. I use it too much anyway...
