Tumblr Updates

Time to keep Adblock Plus Active all the time, seriously.

So. AdBlock is able to block native ads on services like Twitter?

 

[Jonas]

I think so, that is the reason they got kicked from Google Play? Altering the behavior of other apps?

 

[Sushubh]

It was related to running a proxy server to filter ads on mobile browsers. Web ads are easier to detect as they come from different servers. Native ads are very different. They are delivered as part of content.
I am not sure if they are able to temper with content delivered by Twitter.
Can anyone confirm if AdBlock Plus (or similar apps) can block promoted tweets/trends/accounts/whatever in official Twitter app on Android.

 

[Jonas]

Weird enough, I have never seen any ad on Twitter App.
With Adblock turned off.

they appear once or twice a day i think in the stream.

- Find and follow the things you love
– Share photos, gifs, video, quotes, chats, links, and text
– Jump between your dashboard and Explore with just one swipe
– Display the latest images from your dashboard on your lock screen and live tile
– GIFs play as you scroll

Does not look very pretty

 

[Jonas]

They don't bother about users reviews, so I think it's gonna stay this way. Ugly.
