    I don't get it. I never get it. The redirect notif. Maybe your phone got viruses, or the service provider. But I don't think it's the service provider, so it's most likely your mobile

    I disable JavaScript while on my phone and the redirects disappear, but none of the ads will work and some sites require Java in order to read. I turn it back on when I know the site won't redirect me.

    Haven't really had that problem before, but it got worse today (on mobile) mostly happens when I visit a thread over the main page and then go back to it with the "back" button / when I switch the tab while the main page is still loading


    Edit: also no, I don't have a virus, it only happens here on NU / NUF
