Having same issue . Cleared cookies and it was good for a day or 2 then came back

The site is using Ad-Shield, basically proxys everything through their servers. Something we’re still working on a fix on iOS.

May or maynot help, give it a few hours to roll out

I’m not sure if you’re still working on it or not but the main page kind of works but still slow. Also if you click on a post for the comments an add pops up or just freezes for a while. Just giving additional information. I attached a screenshot as well.

Thanks.
