    But it makes sure that Qidian won't get any $$$ from us. Even via ads.

    idk, my internet is shit af so I can't tell for sure, but it's probably as you say.

    Still, this works without user interaction and even with adblock enabled.

    TamperMonkey being closed source is one the main reasons why I switched to Firefox xD (now I'm staying for other reasons). It's also the reason why I never test these scripts on Chrome, because I don't want to install it.

    It's good to know there are FOSS alternatives to TamperMonkey, so thanks for that ^^

    Huh, awesome to see someone figuring things out!
    As expected from the interwebs :D

    Works, but it does get rid of the formatting for me.

    Edit: Upon further testing it seems to get rid of the formatting for some novels, but keeps it for others... weird.

    I probably won't update this anymore, so they could just change their implementation to make this script useless ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Huh, I was not aware about the tamper monkey issue.

    Although from what I read it is "technically" open source, but source is obfuscated to the point of being practically useless to a human reader; which in practice makes it closed source. So, yea, I am going to call it closed source.

    To quote the author
    https://forum.tampermonkey.net/viewtopic.php?t=81
    .... I really don't think open source development is for him if that is how he feels

    thanks for letting me know,I will switch over to violentmonkey

    yes. But the difference is that it automatically removes the ads too with the other chapters on the same novel, thus avoiding the constant 15s delay for each chapter. The script basically removes all ads on the said novel in one go.

    Uhn... Try reading a bit of what the OP said?

    Here, let me quote it for you:
    So, in other words, it's not because it's 1 minute that this script was made.

    It's because it's 1 minute that was easy to bypass. Blame Qidian for having poor programing skills.

    Sigh, now they are going to make things even more complex...

    You should feel ashamed noisypixy! ashamed!

    And I am not saying that because I made a Firefox mobile extension for myself to bypass it...nope... completely unrelated > .>
