Does it seem like Wikipedia has become unusable with all the pop-ups asking for money all the time?

They're covering most of the page now.

I think that's with every app nowadays I don't care what app I go to there has to be some sort of ad on there and it just ruins the whole experience I'm being online

Yes, and the funny thing is they're very well financed, to the tune of over $150M a year.

I agree it's very annoying

I always check Wikipedia first on any new subject

I know academics frown on Wikipedia

I think it's great

Yes and no. Top pop-ups covering rather headlines, fine. Bottom ones covering rather small fonted footers, annoying.

I haven't used it in a long time. It's been years since I used it

[CubaPirate]

Well it's certainly getting to seem like that

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yes, it is unusable.

[Wise4myage]
