Maybe ABP changed their list to allowed those lines to be seen now. And then maybe Chrome already updated its list but Firefox hasn't yet? Does anyone in here not use an adblocker and can tell me if there was ads in our threads before?

There were before - I saw them on my phone before I updated my hosts to block ads.

I think it's somewhat recent, but I stopped blocking ads on this site a few weeks ago, so I could be wrong.

I see it. Could it be related to the Bug Squad group?
