I agree, but just for a moment. (the use of blockers) Those that are computer savvy, and have the instant ability to cary on by using apps so quickly, do have an advantage. My father is 86 and needs social media for stimulation and brain exercise. He is still brilliant but very frustrated. Every update is a struggle. Every visit i need to walk him through changes. And i can barely keep up. I don't like to think of our elders loosing connections via their computers, or getting more confused. (i'm on my husbands new air laptop right now, just days old, without problems.) My iPad i use at work, and for work, is touch sensitive. I speed read and just can't read posts with big sections of posts blocked. And i have add blockers but need to keep trying i suppose. I'm personally not at all put off as i know it will continue and needs to be accepted...I just have to support those here that are frustrated with it just wanting some social time, relaxing time... On an iPad it is a mess. Just a simple scroll, the page present jumps away instantly and hard to retrieve. As if these new pop-ups were designed for just that.

in the Adblock plus settings make sure you have unchecked the option to allow certain types of ads and also make sure in the filter list section you have easylist selected and added to your adblock plus. click on the stop sign ABP icon on your computer to see the options and preferences.

Ugh! Sorry, I am having the same issue with my iPhone 5c. I thought it was something I was doing. I wonder if you can only be signed in on one device.

I didn't even know there were popups. I don't use Adblocker or anything like that but maybe Chrome does something about them.
